Lighthouse Country Moonlight Festival
Thanks to many children we decorated a beautiful tree that will be on display at the Bowser library for the season!
Our booth was the best one out there Thanks to Dave from Georgia Park Store for donating the plastic wind breaker and helping us set up, and Sharon & Doug Prizeman for lending us their Patio Heater, it kept many hands and noses warm while kids were happy making gingerbread men ornaments, that were given to us by Kerry Mason!! And, huge Thanks to Nikki & Jeremy, for the help of setting up and clean up and for the great company during the fest!! Our Bowser Community is awesome, we are lucky to be part of it!!
