Letter from the Village Center TeamSunshine, warmer weather, longer days; spring and summer are

on the way! Are you as anxious as we are to tuck away the winter gear and play outside on the green grass? In our office planning for the spring and summer takes place when the snow is falling and days are shorter – we’ve been dreaming of the change in seasons for quite some time now.

As you look through our latest edition of the Spring/Summer Activity Guide we hope that you will find an activity, program, or event that is of interest to every member of your family. Whether you play a sport, learn a new skill, or plan on attending a concert in the park, there should be something happening for everyone. Spring and Summer are full of special events including the Tri 4 School Youth Triathlon, Big Rig Gig, Community Band Live From the Park Concert Series, and the Chalk Walk. Don’t delay – get your calendar out today and begin to pencil in all of the great activities that are available for you and your family.

Should you have any questions, comments on our programs, or ideas for new activities, please call or send us an email at [email protected]. Your input is always welcomed!

Usually after a few minutes some kids lose interest and start picking dandelions on the field. This is what we do not want and why Little Star Kickers is a great program. Every child gets to play and enjoy each class. We work up to scrimmaging through introductory drills and fun games. They may not be ready for the World Cup after one session, but all will have scored many goals, learned to work with others, developed some basic soccer skills, and hopefully finished class with a big smile on their face excited for class the following week. Each child will receive a Little Star Kickers shirt at the beginning of the session and medal at the end. For more information on the classes, go to www.littlestarkickers.com. Shin guards are required for ages 5 to 6.5.Instructor: Sam Koeppe
