Hello again & welcome to September. We want to give you all a big thank you shout out for a great summer. A lot happened the past three months, but more is on the way.

Our new catering bus is almost finished. Keep watch on our social media as we will have a "test day" & you can help. The bus looks good  due to the hard work of many people. We will list them all in a special blog coming later this month.

Our Open Mic Nights will continue every Tuesday with host Greg Ragan & our Festival Fridays have much coming this month. Check out our events calendar for changes/updates, etc.  Dinosaurs return this Friday, Arts & Crafts on Sept. 11 & Sept. 25.

Our Festival Family seems to grow like magic. Tripp The Clown is our master ringleader & continues to amaze - now he juggles fire!  Beverly our face painter, Mike our balloon twister (a genius to say the least), with visits by young Jerry The Clown, Phillip our drummer and now Veronica & Michael. Veronica hula dances, bubbles dances & sometimes sings. Michaels plays music and spins fire.  Veronica & her kids crafts & art will be with us on several Fridays & we expect more to join us over the next few weeks.

We will venture off site for an animal fund raising vent at Happy Hound on Sept 25 & also be at the Kaleidoscope Festival in Kannapolis that same day!  Busy, busy!

Important note: On Saturday, Sept. 12 there will be a yard sale at Papa Robbs from 7:00 am till 1:00 pm. Presented by the Brookdale Center, it  will benefit the Alzheimer's Walk.
For participation info please call Pam Clark at 704/ 467-2951. A local church will on hand with hotdogs from around 9:30 till ???  This is all for a good cause so we hope to see you on the 12th.

We had a sad incident last week in which a small kitten was accidentally run over & killed. We mention this for a very important reason; please keep a close watch on your children. We have plenty of places for kids to play, but they DO NOT include the parking lot! That is no place for hide & seek games. Kids are small & hard to see, so please, please, please attend to your children at ALL times.

On a happier note we want to repeat that this year has been better than ever & our success is your success. Our Mission Statement is stronger than ever & we continue to believe that if you live in a community, be a part of the community. Thank You & we hope to see you soon.
