Costume SWAP!

Our annual costume swap happens Saturday October 1 from 10:00am - 12:00pm! The children's room turns into a costume store. Stop by the desk on your way in, drop off a costume you want to swap and then shop for a new-to-you costume to take home. Couldn't find anything? No problem, you can take home your costume if want or you can donate it for us to put out for others. You can swap any costume for any other costume, makes no difference size.. This year we will be adding a Food for Costume swap - just bring a shelf stable food item and you can swap that for a costume of your choice.
