There will be many activities for all, and even a “Fall Selfie Photo Booth” for you to come and get a festive individual or family photo! For this event to be a success we will need your help. So, please sign up on the Volunteer Form that is available in the front foyer and let us know how you can help. You can read what is involved in the activities you are signing up for on the Games and Activities Sheet (also in the front foyer). Also, pick up some flyers to give to family, friends, and neighbors. Let’s get the word out to as many as we can!
