CCS hosting second annual Summer Block Party

WASILLA— CCS Early Learning is hosting its annual Summer Block Party July 30 from 12 to 3 p.m. at the Palmer location.

This is a free family-friendly event that's open to the public.

“It’s just a celebration in our community to bring families together and give them some age-appropriate activities to participate in and celebrate summer,” CCS Early Learning Executive Assistant Serena Lee said.

This is the second year of this new annual gathering. Lee said they will have many of the same activities as last year including a bounce house, door prizes, yard games, facility tours, hot dogs and hamburgers hot off the grill, and even the chance to meet Barney and BJ from the "Barney and Friends."

“I sent some time in the bounce houses. It was crazy fun,” Lee said with a laugh. “There were so many laughs and smiles. The parents were enjoying themselves as well. They were sitting out on the grass knowing that their kids were having fun. I think it was just nice to bring everyone together and that’s what I enjoyed the most.”
