Memorial Day Block Party Fun!
Neighbors throughout Abilene host block parties!
Several Haven House leaders and other CCC volunteers stepped up and hosted block parties for their neighbors on Memorial Day. This is the third year that CCC has coordinated summer block parties for neighbors. We appreciate the service of the hosts (who had a really good time, too) and also Keep Abilene Beautiful who donated trees for each block party host.
Responses from block party leaders included "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" as well as sending lots of pictures and touching stories of neighbors discovering a serious need on their block and rising to the occasion to help their neighbor.
For your enjoyment, here is a slideshow of photos from one of the Block Parties on Harbour Town, hosted by Kim McLaughlin, one of our newest Haven House leaders. Their party included food, fun, and a hoola hoop contest!
LOVED IT!!!!!!
