We had a great time at the Bottineau Car show! Thank you for letting us be part of this awesome event!

As far as the water fight goes, I think the kids may have been victorious this time BUT we will be back!

See everyone Saturday!

Think you’ve got what it takes to soak a firefighter?

Grab your water guns, buckets, balloons, and your best battle strategy, then head to Northstar Credit Union after the tractor parade for the biggest water fight of the summer!

The battle will rage on until:
💧 We run out of water…
🏳️ Someone waves the white flag…
🧑‍🚒Or the firefighters finally admit defeat!

We’ll have water balloon supplies for the kids, refill stations to keep your water weapons fully loaded, and FREE frozen treats generously donated by Northstar Credit Union to help everyone cool off after the battle.

⚠️WARNING⚠️: You will get wet. Parents standing too close may become “accidental” targets. Enter the splash zone at your own risk!

See you on the battlefield!
