Activities and Events

Parent’s Night Out
The 3rd Friday of each month children (6 mos. to 10 years old) gather for a night with their friends. Parents drop the kids of at 6:00 and pick up is at 10:00. Children enjoy pizza, crafts, bounce house, games and movies. Cost is $30 for 1 child, $35 for 2 children, $40 for 3 children and $45 for 4 or more children.

All reservations must be made and paid for by noon on the Sunday prior to the Friday of Parent’s Night Out.  Also, all cancellations must be made by noon on the Sunday prior to the Friday of Parent’s Night Out in order to receive a refund. This ensures that we have an adequate number of childcare staff and supplies.
