Hi Everyone,
I hope you all had a safe and happy holiday. I know this year has been tough for alot of people, myself included. So many have lost their jobs yet would still like to celebrate New Years.
One idea I ran across in the City of West Allis Newsletter are the upcoming festivities at West Allis Central High School. They have planned to celebrate new years in a big way. The cost is $5.00 for persons 4 years of age and older. If you are a CAAD (Community Alliance Against Drug) member, admission is free. Adults must accompany children as well. The activities will run from 6:30pm until 11:00pm.
The following are a list of activities which include: basketball, volleyball, face painting, balloon art by Mr. and Mrs. D Clown, music by DJ Lee and much more. What is even better is that the pool will be open from 7- 10pm. but please remember to bring a towel and a lock.
The following attractions such as: the moonwalk, rock climbing wall and 7 hole mini-golf are part of the evenings events as well.
Concessions include: pizza, hot dogs, nachos, cotton candy, snow cones, popcorn, candy, soda and bottled water. Tickets for ATTRACTIONS and CONCESSIONS are sold at 4 for $1.00 or an all night wrist band is available for $3.00.
The door prize alone is for a Brewers game. Now who doesn't want to see the Brewers? I know I sure do! This ultimate door prize will be to the May 3rd game at 1:05pm. The package includes 4 field diamond tickets and a gold preferred parking pass valued at $275.00. Each family receives one free raffle ticket. Additional tickets can be purchased at $1.00 each or 6 for $5.00. Drawing is at 10:45pm in the fieldhouse and winner must be present to claim the prize.
To be honest, not only do I believe this is a fabulous idea, but I will be attending as well. It is so exciting to me to be able to bring my daughters to the exact high school I graduated from 20 years ago.
I have called around and heard about New Years ideas on the radio and have been quoted prices up towards $90.00 per person to attend. Not only is this less expense than the prior quote, but it gives you a mini taste of a "winter" festival as well. I mean, honestly, who doesn't love nachos, snow cones and cotton candy?
If anyone has other fabulous ideas, please feel free to comment below. If you attend and see me, feel free to say hi.
Have a safe and wonderful New Year.
