Just to clarify, Primary Languages will be having songs, games, and stories for preschoolers ages 3-5 at our classroom at 213 Xenia Ave, above The Winds Cafe, at 10 AM, 12 PM, and 2 PM.

We'll have crafts for kids ages 3-10 all day long at our booth (#103) in front of the Winds Wine Cellar on Xenia Ave.

It made me laugh to see people dancing on the funeral home lawn. There was always a "Keep off the grass" sign there on my walk to Mills Lawn. Of course, we kids made it a point to put one foot in that yard every morning!
