Halloween/Fall Celebration
Our Halloween/Fall Celebration will be held on
Sunday, October 30. The Halloween parade will start at 3:30 at Hall and 84th Terrace and end at the pool. We are hoping to have a funnel cake food truck. There will be a fire pit and we'll be serving s'mores and hot chocolate. If you are planning on attending, please email Ashley Meier at aajmeier@gmail.com to let her know approximately how many people from your family will be there. We are trying to get a rough estimate on attendees in order to determine if we will meet the minimum for the food truck.
Mark your calendars for the Holiday Lights/Santa celebration on Sunday, December 11 at 5:30. More details in the next newsletter.
