Today is the first day of school for many children and teens in our area. As the summer starts to fade, here at UPC we’re looking ahead to fall.
This year the Halloween Carnival will once again be returning to the Fellowship Hall on October 27th. After several years in the St. Margaret Mary rec building and then a three year break, we restarted the carnival last year. It’s a return to the smaller space, but we like to think of it as cozy. We’ll need several volunteers to help run the games, as well as set up and clean afterwards. Look for more information on that in the next several weeks. You can also rsvp on our Facebook event for updates and to be reminded when the carnival gets closer.
One week later, on November 3rd, we’ll be hosting the Fall Craft Sale and Bazaar. This event was not held last year, but some new organizers are at the helm for 2018. We’re signing up vendors now and are taking only one exhibitor per company (only one exhibitor for Norwex will be accepted, for example). There will food during the sale, as well as a raffle. You can rsvp for that event on Facebook as well, to see updates and be reminded when the day draws closer.
We hope you’ll consider joining us for one or both of these exciting events at U.P. Church!
It’s been a few years since we have been able to hold a Halloween Carnival. This year we are hoping to revive the tradition. With the closing of St. Margaret Mary’s Catholic Church, we will no longer be able to use their wonderful rec hall. As such, we are moving the carnival back to our own Fellowship Hall. We will be selling tickets for games, as well as food and drinks. Parents and kids of all ages welcome!
