Hey Families! Tunes with Tim has started weekly Wednesday music classes for kiddos from infant to toddler! It is right across from the Blue Park and a great indoor activity. There are 4 class times every Wednesday! Sign-Up:http://Tuneswithtim.com/classes.
We are trying to bring the band back together. At the end of 2019, we were supposed to walk into 2020 finalizing plans to renovate the park and fundraise! Given the situation of pandemic, businesses closing, the struggles emotionally on our families, etc., it did not seem right to push forward.
We paused.
It's time to pick up where we left off. If you are interested in getting involved with the Park Advisory Council, please fill out this form. We are looking for active members to help make the change needed in our park and neighborhood.
After a two year hiatus due to CoVID-19, we're bringing the gang back together. We are looking for active participants to help organize events and help fundraise to renovate the South Lakeview Park.
