Jim will be in charge of the kids games, plenty of prizes and fun with a slip &
slide on the beach into the lake.
A Kayak Rodeo for the adults will be part of the fun, provided by the SLV

  2. Ginny in Georgia:

    Are there going to be fireworks after the rest of the events?

    • Theresa Bryan:

      Ginny, I am so sorry I did not see your comment or I would have answered you. There were fireworks on the lake this year but not as grand as in the past. Fishing Village had them as well as Soap Creek.
