WinterFest 2017
The STARS Club will be hosting its first event, WinterFest! Please note that our original date and location has changed.
Please join us Saturday, February 25th from 1pm – 4pm at the Clubhouse.
We’re planning on showing movies with hot chocolate, hotdogs, popcorn, cotton candy, snow cones and more!
We also plan on having several different games to play, winter crafts to create, and lessons in some snow sports. We’ll even make it feel like winter with some sand sledding. It may not be “wintery”, but we’ll still have a lot of fun!
If you’re planning on attending, please take this short survey so that we can plan on having adequate supplies for our crafts and snow sports lessons.
See your there!
WinterFest Postponed
Temperatures are projected to be near 60 degrees Saturday. This, coupled with only a dusting of snow, WinterFest has been postponed until Saturday, February 25th 1pm – 4pm. As 50 degree temperatures are predicted to last into next week, the STARS Club is working on an alternate plan inside the Clubhouse in case the 25th is also not a wintery day.
The STARS Club will be meeting this evening (Feb 15th) at 6pm in the Clubhouse to discuss these plans. All are welcomed to attend!
