Summer Block Party

We feel that what the world needs now is love, sweet love - just kidding! What we need now is community fun, a summer of new experiences, a time to just be around others while we have fun - a SUMMER BLOCK PARTY!!!

Wednesdays, June 5 - July 31, 630pm - 8pm

Every week we encourage you to bring a chair, a water bottle, maybe even some bug spray! Bring your bike, or scooter, or skateboard. We will gather in the back parking lot to sit and chat while kids play. A special snack will be ready each Wednesday. See the schedule below! Not only is everyone invited, but everyone is welcome! Free.

June 5 - Bike & Balls - a chance to get to know each other and take advantage of our basketball goal, large parking lot, and volleyball net

June 12 - We are doing a bit of geocaching! Be ready to discover some fun!

June 19 - Weird Cookout - Did you know you can cook things in every day items. For example, you can cook a hotdog in a Pringles can!

June 26 - Yard Games - Gaga ball pit, cornhole, ladder ball, and huge Jenga...sounds fun to us!

July 3 - We are going to be slipping n sliding all night! Bring some sunscreen, a swimsuit, and a towel!

July 10 - Another night of fun geocaching!

July 17 - Wet N Wild - All water games, all night. water races, a dunking booth, and water balloons!

July 24 - Water, water, water and even water rockets!

July 31 - Our last night, our final hurrah! Our end of summer bash! This is the night you better wear white and clothes you don't care if they get ruined! Make sure your adults bring a trash bag for you to wear home and one for you to sit on on the ride home. We are getting messy with PAINT WARS!!!

Every night will also have some craft things to do in case someone doesn't want to participate in the night's festivities!
