Fall Festival is Tomorrow!
We will have games, candy, prizes, music, snacks, fire truck, haunted bus, and more! Everyone is welcome to wear costumes. Entrance is free, and everyone will park in the Covenant Methodist Church just behind our school (3608 Matlock Road, Arlington 76015). We will have some great prizes at our raffle table; raffle tickets are $2/each and can be purchased with only check or cash. In addition, Kona Ice will be here selling sno cones.
We are excited to see you tomorrow for a great day of fun!
