The sounds of excited children’s laughter and lots of giggles filled the air on the Saturday morning before Easter. The children were participating in the annual Grandkids’ Day, organized by the SaddleBrooke HOA-2’s Fitness, Wellness and Recreation Committee and hosted by the SaddleBrooke Swim Club and Paper Crafters’ Club. This year, over 50 grandchildren of residents and staff participated in the popular event held at the Mountain View Bar and Grill.
The children are organized into two groups, with the kindergartners and preschoolers in one group, the first through third graders in the other. The little ones searched for eggs in the grass while the older children made Easter cards with lots of glitter, stickers, crayons and fun. The groups then switched.
The plastic eggs filled with candy and the dollar bills are donated by members of the SaddleBrooke Swim Club who have hosted the event for the past 10 years. The card making supplies were donated by the SaddleBrooke Paper Crafters’ Club. Thank you to both these clubs for their time and effort to make this day special for the families of SaddleBrooke.
If you have young grandchildren that visit during the Easter weekend, don’t miss this fun event next year.
