4:00 PM - "75 Years of Music"
& Refreshments
We are celebrating "75 Years of Music" with Avondale favorites and all musical gifts represented - and you too! Kind of like the "Festival Sundays" of our past, all our musical entities will be represented - choir, handbells, band... hear loved anthems and sing along to favorite hymns. Be here for this BIG celebration of music.
  Refreshments will follow.
This event is kid friendly!
Enjoy hotdogs, caramel apples, smores, and Cheer Wine punch.
  Also enjoy walking the campus Open House to see the many historical displays remembering and celebrating our 75 years.
