Community Fun day....

Community Fun Day has come and gone...turnout was good, but could have had more if it weren't for Halloween...But there were lots of new faces here to enjoy the facility.

All of the staff embers did an excellent job at their activities...Archery was very popular, so props to AJ for doing such a good job. The Climbing Wall was also very popular. Crafts was run by our very own Sara Biggs, but she partnered with Marsha Cady - Troop Leader and HGSIC of Girl Scouts Colonial Coast Manteo.

The hot dog cookout was pretty amazing, but topping that was the homemade ice cream...There were enough leftovers for the staff to enjoy an impromptu ice cream party at the Staff House afterwards.

Concurrent to Community Fun Day, Auburn played a football game against Ole Miss. The Auburn team elected to show up and compete for the first time in abot a month - and pulled out an impressive victory over Ole Miss. Auburn even scored more points against Ole Miss than in-state rival Alabama...so Bama needs to be ready...

The weather has turned sour, too. In the twelve hours after 3:00 pm on saturday there was a 30 degree drop in temperature...so the good weather held out for Fun Day, but arrived just in time to push migrating waterfowl into our neighborhood. Swans are definietly on the move, especially around Northampton, Hertford, and Bertie Counties...another good north west wind will push 'em on down our way.

This week will be quiet around the Center...this weekend we are hosting a large Christian Men's Retreat. November is traditionally a slow month, but it gives us the chance to catch our breath and prepare for all of the upcoming Holiday parties...

Enjoy the day...
