Holiday Events

It’s that time of year again! We the “New Vienna Community Center” are in the process of putting together the Second Annual New Vienna Christmas parade. We would like to invite you to join us, by entering the parade! Please find attached three files. They contain the parade details. We will be judging the entries and the winners will receive a delicious Christmas ham! Our theme again this year is “Christmas” until we get a little more established in these first few years. Please contact me (Sarah Ford) with any questions you may have. I am certainly willing to hand deliver a paper copy of these attached files.
