Come Out of Hibernation! Annual Spring Fling
Saturday April 6, 7-11 pm
Vintage Brewing, Whitney Way
Catch up with neighbors and welcome new ones at the Parkwood Hills Community Association Spring Fling!
The event will once again be held at the Vintage Brewing Company on Whitney Way across from HyVee. Look for us in the banquet room near the rear of the restaurant.
The Spring Fling is a great way to relax, chat with neighbors, and celebrate the end of another Wisconsin winter. It’s a FREE event for all Parkwood Hills residents. Enjoy drinks and light food while they last.
Friends who are not residents of Parkwood Hills are welcome to attend for $15 per person, payable at the door. Last year’s event was very well attended, so make sure you don’t miss out this year.
On Your Marks, Get Set, Easter Candy!
The Annual Easter Egg Hunt at Everglade Park,
Saturday, April 20, 2019
Round up the kids and bring them to Everglade Park on the Saturday morning before Easter, where they will find that the Easter Bunny has hidden 1,000 goody-filled eggs throughout the park. The search starts at 10am sharp, so don’t be late. In past years, the kids have scoured the park clean of eggs within 10 minutes. And one lucky child will find the elusive golden egg filled with a $5 bill!
In case of extremely rainy or snowy (!) weather, the event will be delayed until noon that day. If the weather is still bad at noon, the hunt will still go on, as those candy-filled eggs won’t keep a whole year. So bring your baskets or buckets, your boots, and your cameras, and join the fun!
If you have any eggs to recycle, please drop them off on Grant Priehs’ front porch at 6 Yellowstone Court. He’s the local Easter Bunny liaison.
