Hello, relatives! 🎃
Thank you to everyone who came out and visited our Haunted House! We had such a great time, and we hope you all had just as much fun!

Unfortunately, due to the rainy weather, we decided to close up shop a little earlier than planned. We are so grateful for everyone who came out to support us!
Wishing everyone a Happy Halloween!
Stay safe, have fun, and remember to always travel with a trusted adult! 🧡

Alright relatives, it’s time to share our next event!
🤍🖤💜🖤🧡🤍

We invite our area youth to come through our Haunted Office! October 30th at our new location. See flyer for details! 👇🏽

If you remember our haunted office in our previous location in Wagner?!

Well, we are back and it will be bigger! Our youth group participants have been working hard to setup this up and make it a fun experience for our community. It’s a joy seeing them take something so serious and want to do a good job.

If you have any questions as always you may reach out to our team.

A huge shoutout to Jewel and NAWHERC for organizing such a meaningful Domestic Violence Awareness Parade! It was wonderful to see such a great turnout and our community come together to raise awareness, show support for survivors, and advocate for an issue that deserves our attention and action. Thank you for bringing our community together for such an
important cause! 💜💜💜

Hello relatives 😁 👋🏽

What a beautiful Saturday it is!

If you’re out around Lake Andes, you might notice some kindness rocks. 🪨 These were painted and spread around town by our local youth to bring sunshine to our community, and hopefully, provide an encouraging message to someone who needs it. ☀️

Comment below 👇🏽 if you happen to find one of these precious treasures! Lucky you, if you do! It’s yours to keep! 🥳
