The 2005 Celebrations

Day 1 (July 1) is spent in the park, and constitutes an all-day affair, starting with kids' games at 12 noon, with over 100 prizes to be won. There is also a HUGE Allison Park cake, bbq hot dogs, and "Bill's Famous Sausages".

Day 2 (July 2): Our second day of celebration takes us to Wild Water Works at Confederation Park, where Mr. Ecklund rents Pavilions 1 and 2 and our own private picnic area that can accommodate 500 people. There we have shelter and our own private volleyball court, not to mention all the fun and excitement that a water park has to offer. We have our own bbq and refreshing cold drinks are on ice.

Day 3 (July 3): The third day of celebration takes us to Southern Pines Golf & country Club where we hold our annual Golf Tournament. This year we had an incredible turnout with 40 people in attendance! Following the day of golf, we retire to the clubhouse and check out everything the 19th hole has to offer. Prizes, drinks, and the usual 'stories' are the fun of the day.
