DOES THIS DESCRIBE YOU?
"I've always wanted to be in a parade but nobody has ever asked me"
Consider yourself asked! I would like to participate in next year's Northern Lights Parade in Downtown Flagstaff and we are having a planning meeting to gage your interest in being a part of this activity. The date for the meeting is Tuesday, 21 December at 6:00 PM at the Adult Center.
All you have to do is: Attend this meeting, bring your ideas and suggestions plus
Anybody who is accompanied by Christmas Cookies (baked this year please) will get our full attention.

Have you heard the rumor that someone is planning a Polar Bear Plunge into one of our local lakes on New Year's Day?
