Independence Day Celebration

Join in on the Independence Day Celebration on July 4th at Northwood Club

Please sign in at the front desk, you will find a clip board and sheet to give your name, member number, number of people attending and what dish you will be bringing. Ideally we need this info by pool closing on Thursday as we will be picking up many things on Friday.

We are asking for A-O to bring a side dish and P-Z to bring a dessert. Please remember to bring a dish big enough for a crowd. If you are bringing a dish that needs refrigerated and can bring it in a cooler this would be great. We will have some aluminum pans with ice available to set dishes in, but may not have enough.

The pool opens at 10 AM on July 4th for the early birds! The events will go on from 1- 5, with food starting at 1PM. We have many games planned for adults and kids. Please sign up to oversee some of the events that require help. A sheet is available at the pool with times slots needed, doing your part will allow everyone to be safe and still have fun with their families!

Face painting, diving contests, relay races, moon bounce and water slide, a coin toss, bag decorations, a candy scramble and sidewalk chalk are some of the activities planned!!

IF you have time and would like to help set up and or clean up, please send an email to memberservices@northwoodpool.com, and let us know when you are available.

Thank You!
