Carline Safety: Please keep your child safely buckled in their car seat until you've reach one of the spots where we get children out of the car. You do not need to get out of your car- the carline greeter will get your child out. It is a good idea to place your car in "park" so that your car does not roll at all during this busy time.
MECE's Annual Auction "Celebrating 50 Years of Magic at MECE" is Saturday, November 12, 2022 4:00 - 7:00 pm here at MECE.
