I hope that this Veteran’s day weekend was an opportunity for some good family time. Whenever there is a long holiday weekend we try to make sure we don’t have youth in order to ensure maximum time spent with family. If you ever need some ideas for a great family day let us know, plus we’ve got plenty of fun things you can borrow like Crossnet!
We’ve got some awesome things come down the pipeline in November and December. We want to make sure it’s on your radar.
Thanksgiving Party Potluck- Sunday, 11/24 5-7pm Wesley Hall
We want to have a thanksgiving themed potluck on the 24th. We are asking everybody to bring something for this meal. We’ve got the turkey, and we’ve got paper products and utensils, we just need everything else. We need sides, drinks, and desserts. Please sign-up at the link below so we know how much food we can expect to have. We suggest bringing a dish that can feed 8-10 people.
Christmas Party- Sunday, 12/15, Location: TBD 5-7pm
We are having a Tacky Sweater/White Elephant party on December 15th. We’ll tell you where soon, but put it on the calendar! Kids should pick out their tackiest/weirdest Christmas Sweater. Kids should also bring a small gift for the White Elephant gift exchange, $5 maximum. gifts that are alive are discouraged! No goldfish or mice please (I brought a mouse to one in college and it backfired because my roommate got it).
