One of the most exciting things about living in Wake Forest are the wonderful events and activities that take place throughout the year. They provide a great opportunity for residents to partake in the community, meet new friends and just have a good time! Every week I highlight what is upcoming for the following week in Wake Forest and I hope that you have found the information useful in planning your week.

Love your blog design!
Gotta love kids events! I just spent my entire Friday evening at Caras Park here in Missoula for Kiddapalooza...a charity event to raise money for the Children's Museum here in town. It was a blast!
Yes Leesa! Your town certainly does sound like mine! Come out for a visit, Disneyland is only about 5 miles from here and you know your son would love that! :o)
Michael - Thanks - that means alot!
Clint - That sounds like it was a great event for a great cause! Wake Forest has ton's of activites for kids!
Cristal - Don't extend an invitation that you have no intentions of keeping! :) When me and my crew show up on your door step we expect the full tour! We would always do the same for you!!!!
Im still covered in splash-marks from the tie-dye booth...LOL!
Leesa,
As always another good post with loads of useful information about things to do in Wake Forest. So many free events and that is always good.
Don R.
Clint - That does sound like fun!!!
Don - I know that we sometimes get "blog block" but there is an unlimited supply of things to do, things to see and places to go in Wake Forest that I honestly don't have enough time. This list though is awesome with all of the FREE stuff! Now, as I just have said that, hubby is asking if there is anything to do today. HAHA
Leesa, I particularly like this events announcement because now you are getting into longer term events and people can put things down on the calendar. It's not like it is something that will pop up just this week. Very good.
I have every intention of keeping it girlfriend! Give me a month or so to get moved (yes, I just bought a house in this market) and should be all closed and moved by Labor Day!
Gary - Thanks for always reading my events post. I wish I could always get these events out early but sometimes the info just isn't available.
Cristal - Wow - I don't envy you moving AT ALL!
Sounds like Wake Forest is a great place to live and have fun!
Pam - You are right! It is pretty awesome here!
