Thanks to everyone who came out to the 1st Third Friday Night Cruise-In last week! it was a great success! Plan to attend the next one on Friday, June 19th from 5-9 pm.
Memorial Day is this weekend. Make sure to spend part of your weekend in downtown Fuquay-Varina. Father's Day, graduation and the last day of school are all right around the corner, and there's no place like downtown to shop for someone special!
Mark your calendar! Saturday, June 6th is just two weeks away. The Celebrate Fuquay-Varina! and Celebration of the Arts Festivals will take place from 10 am -4 pm on that day. This is going to be one gigantic celebration! Afterall, the Centennial Celebration only happens every 100 years! Plan to be there or you'll have missed something REALLY BIG!
Have a safe weekend!
Sincerely,
Susan Weis
