One of my favorite holiday activities takes place this weekend. The registration deadline is today for our Gingerbread House building activity. Registration is required so that I can make enough frosting. Call 886-3391 to register. The entry fee is one bag of candy per child--please bring candy that will make good gingerbread decorations. All ages are welcome to attend on Saturday, Dece. 9 at 10 a.m.
Our Family Fun Night next week is bound to be a hit! We have special readers and storytellers coming to entertain the children while they wait for our special visitor. The show starts at 7 p.m.
I hope to see all of you out for the rescheduled parade on Friday night!
