Merry Grinchmas! More than 50 kids had a grand time playing all kinds of games and activities. With more adults than kids we had more than 200 family and community members join in the festivities!

Here’s a special THANK YOU to all the volunteers from Organizer Elf Linkydink, a.k.a. Darlene Adams:

I want to THANK everyone that helped with the Kids GrinchMAS party on Sunday. It was an overwhelming success. We had 51+ children, plus parents, plus the Moose members that helped with games, pictures, food, registration, etc. There was a lot of work behind the scenes that I owe a very special thank you to them as well. Also thank you to everyone that came and brought your children. I hope that the party was as much fun for them as it was for us at the Moose. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
