Our Parks and Recreation Team has some amazing events, activities, and engagements planned this fall/winter, from a Community Ofrenda to a Gingerbread House Workshop. The One Warm Coat Drive, Giving Tree, and Letters to Santa are happening now.  

Please join us for an art reception on Dec. 3 and Dec. 15 from 5-7:00pm at the Community Center. We have received submissions by extremely talented local artists.  

Be assured that all of our in-person events are planned conservatively and consciously in order to keep our community safe in case health concerns reemerge. I hope to see you soon.
