Children's Spooktacular Halloween Program
The 4th Annual Children's Spooktacular Halloween Program will be
held at Shannon Center on Friday, October 27, 1989. This year we
will offer two separate programs which will be divided by age
groups. Preschoolers and Kindergarteners can enjoy their
spooktacular program from 1:30-3:OOp.m. Children grades 1-5 will
follow at 3:30-5:30p.m. Both events will feature Halloween
games, crafts and a costume parade. A $2.00 fee wil be charged
per participant.
Festival of Lights -Tree Lighting Ceremony
The traditional tree lighting ceremony is scheduled for Monday,
December 4, 1989. As per the direction of the Commission at
their regular meeting of June 13, 1989, this years event will be
held at the new Civic Center. Staff is currently working out the
logistics of lighting a tree (or trees) in the outdoor plaza.
In past years, entertainment has consisted of performances from
local groups followed by refreshments and a visit from Santa.
We can follow a similar format for entertainment or replace group
performances with a community sing -along led by a local band or
choir. Commission input is requested.
Breakfast With Santa
The 5th Annual Breakfast with Santa will be held at Shannon
Community Center on Saturday, December 16. A pancake breakfast
will be prepared and served by the Dublin High School Band
Boosters followed by visits with Santa. All children in
attendance will receive a special gift from Santa.
