FRIENDS AND FAMILY GAMES AND PIE NIGHT!! (NOVEMBER 28th from 7-8pm)
**I sent the wrong date in an email last week. This event IS on the 28th...not the 27th. I have a big graduate assignment due on the 27th so that's been on my brain. Very sorry!
You are invited to attend our first annual Friends and Family Game and Pie Night at Longbranch. We'll provide the board games (but if you have one you want to bring and share we'd love that too), we'll also provide the whipped cream and the coffee and bottled water. Each family is asked to bring a pie to share and a non-perishable item to donate to either the Northern Kentucky Cold Shelter (paper towels, toilet paper, new men's socks, winter hats, scarves, gloves) or to Welcome House (Diapers, Shampoo, Conditioner, Soap).
Family Holiday Movie Night DECEMBER 12th (from 7-8pm)
