A special thanks to Aimee Sutton for representing Parkshore III with planning / volunteering / organizing the event! It was great to see everyone who came out to the combined neighborhood party at the Elks. We had a good turn out and everyone had a lot of fun. The Greek food, Smashburgers and sweet treats all got rave reviews and the kids enjoyed playing on the swing set as well as the yard games (Badminton, corn hole). It was great to meet some of our neighbors from nearby neighborhoods and connect with old friends here in Parkshore III. Hopefully we can make this an annual get together.
Spring Neighborhood Party This Saturday!
Combined Neighborhood Spring Party – May 11
Heads up neighbors! This year we are trying something a bit different for our spring get together. We have been invited to a combined party at the Elks Lodge (1113 Sam Rittenberg Blvd, Charleston, SC 29407) with other nearby neighborhoods – Wespanee Plantation and Sandhurst.
Where: Elks Lodge
When: May 11th, 4-7pm
There will be yard games, non-alcoholic beverages (water, tea, lemonade) and fellowship for free. There will also be food trucks and alcoholic beverages for those interested.
There will be no admission fees, but residents will be responsible for purchasing any food / drinks besides water, tea and lemonade.
Business Sponsorships Available: If you are interested in having signage and / or a table, sponsorships are available for $50 and $100. We could hang signage and they could have a table if interested. We are asking for business sponsorships only (no political candidates).
If anyone has any yard games they are interested in letting us borrow that would also be helpful! Please contact Aimee Sutton if you are interested in a sponsorship or if you have yard games you would like to lend for the event.
