Plans are being finalized for the many activities going on over the Reunion Week End. Please stop back again and we will give details.
***Potawatomi Park Pavillion #4 is very near the splash pad. So be sure to pack a suit and towel for your children if that is something they would be interested in. There is also a public pool nearby if the older kids want to go swimming.
