Come eat a hot dog and Dippin Dots while you get your face painted, and take your picture in the photo booth. There is something for everyone this Saturday for Community Day. There will be a Touch a Truck area where you can explore a fire truck, police truck, sheriff's car, and ambulance. There will also be a bouncy house for younger children and an inflatable obstacle course for the older ones. For the active person there will be a 5K run/walk in the morning, and a 3 on 3 student basketball tournament in the Prairieview gym in the afternoon. I hope to see you all there!
