Block Party


We had our neighborhood block party. For the third year we have made it an Ice Cream Social. Since Tony next door is the local Tilamook Ice cream man for the local fairs it is a logical thing to do. He has his wagon that he sets up at most activities in the area. We didn’t get the wagon because it is fair time but we did get a discount on ice cream, free cups, and people bring toppings.
We had about 75 people show up and a few forgot about the party. Everyone had a good time. Marilyn played the roll of teacher again and had a number of games for kids of all ages to play, like garbage can races and water balloon toss.
Again this year the fire truck came and gave rides to kids of all ages. This was a big hit with everyone.
In addition we collected food for the food bank and got 50 pounds of canned food and $29 for the food bank.
