What an amazing way to end our family dinners for this school year!! We had about 160 people attend our event and get to visit/pet a variety of animals!! Great big thanks to all for a fantastic event! 😁😁😁

Have a great last week of school, and we’ll be back in August with more family dinners! 👍🏻

Tuesday is our last family dinner for this school year!
Petting zoo, decorating cookies, prizes, Studio b FOCUS dancers, and Walter and Winnie's Lemonade!! $7 for a lemonade or $8 for a flavored lemonade.

🍋 Sunshine season is officially here… and so is Walter & Winnie’s Lemonade! 🍋

We’re excited to announce that Walter & Winnie’s Lemonade is BACK for the spring & summer season, serving up your favorite fresh-squeezed lemonades! ☀️💛

This year, we’ll be limiting our special events schedule, but you can still find us at local farmers' markets and during Mosey Down Main throughout the season!

We can’t wait to see our amazing community again, catch up with familiar faces, and make your summer a little sweeter one lemonade at a time. 🍓🍋

If you haven’t heard, Kimmy and I have been contacting various friends, FFA students, and 4-H groups about having a small petting zoo at our Family Dinner tomorrow night!

You’ll get to visit & pet some of the critters found in Charlotte’s Web, decorate your own cookie for dessert, and see our Dance Club in action! Goody bags will also be given! 🎉🎉🎉
