HINDLEY HAPPENING
SATURDAY MAY 9th
10:00 am – 4:00 pm
Dear Hindley Families,
The Hindley Happening is almost here!!! Our committee has been extremely
hard at work and we are ready for another wildly successful day. In the gym, be
sure to visit the Hindley Auction. You do not want to miss out on many incredible
auction items! Get your bids in!!! In addition to all your favorite rides, we have
our popular and exciting “Try Your Luck” games and activity booths (hairspray
and face painting). NEW THIS YEAR - In our Games area, have fun capturing a
Hindley Happening memory at our Photo Booth and creating something special
at the Sand Art Table. Then, when you've worked up an appetite, head over to
the food tent for a slice of pizza or a freshly grilled hamburger or hotdog. Finally,
your sweet tooth is sure to be satisfied with our bake sale and donut decorating
booth!
Take a few minutes to read through our Hindley Happening Guide
Book…. It has all the information you will need for the big day!
****As a special courtesy, we will be opening the rides at 9:00 am for families
with children with special needs****
ENJOY THE DAY!
