Hello Priddis!
We have lots of exciting programs and events coming up in our community and hope to see you there. We would also appreciate it if you would consider helping out at one of our events this year. Community events can’t happen without many volunteers and we are always looking for new helpers. Volunteering if your community is a great way to not only give back, but also to get to know other community members and stay in the loop with what’s going on in our area.
The popular Community Garage Sale is back for another year! Join us on Saturday May 10 from 9am-1pm to shop for some new treasures. There will also be a concession available. There is no entry fee to shop, the event is cash only and all proceeds go to our non profit community association.
Please keep our garage sale in mind when doing your spring cleaning. You can donate your unwanted items in good condition between 10am and 7pm on Friday May 9. Items we can’t take: mattress, box springs, car seats, booster seats, readers digest condensed books, encyclopedias, wire hangers, VHS, 8-track, cassette tapes, helmets.

We want to close by giving a big shout out to everyone who has volunteered to take a shift at our upcoming Casino on April 29 and 30. This is a huge fundraiser for our community and it takes a lot of volunteers over the 2 days. Also, our deepest gratitude to Carmen and Wayne Heinen for coordinating the volunteers for this important event.
