Safe Kids Fall Festival and Operation Medicine Drop


This Saturday, October 29, 2011, the Henderson Family YMCA and Safe Kids Henderson-Vance will be hosting a fall festival. Come out for Fun, Games, Prizes, Educational Materials, Costume Parade, Hot Dogs, and Raffles.  There is a $0.50 (50 cents) entry fee.  If you bring in their flyer for the event that you can download and then print by clicking on the image here, admission is free!

Saturday, also from 10am to 2pm will be the Operation Medicine Drop also at the Henderson Family YMCA where everyone is encouraged to bring in old and expired medicine to be properly disposed of.  Disposing of this medicine properly keeps children from accessing stockpiles of medicine in your cabinets.
