Life In Wake Forest NC.....

Wow - super special week ahead in Wake Forest NC!  This weekend will be the unparalleled Wake Forest NC July 4th Fireworks Celebration!  Keep in mind that this year's celebration has been moved to the Heritage High School!  Once again this year the incredible Band of Oz will be performing, there will be food concessions open, and the entire event has something for EVERYONE!  There's one more important event this week - it's the Wake Forest NC House Chick's BIRTHDAY WEEK!  WOO HOO!  Every year I celebrate my birthday all week long since it coincides so closely with July 4th!  Why not??? 

This week will be absolutely amazing with all of the celebrating in Wake Forest NC and don't miss some of the other events as well like the 1st Annual 5K Freedom Walk and the Wake County Animal Center Ribbon Cutting!  It's going to be scorching hot this week and upcoming weekend so if you get the chance take advantage of Holding Park pool and drink LOT'S OF WATER!

Have fun at the celebrations and I am sure I will see you around a few of them - I'll be the one with the birthday hat!
