The Holmstad Town Center will transform into the Wild West for its annual Grandparents Day Celebration on Saturday, Sept. 10, 2-5 p.m., and area families are invited to join the fun. The Holmstad, a faith-based, not-for-profit continuing care retirement community, is located at 700 W. Fabyan Parkway, Batavia. The free celebration will include a horse drawn trolley, pony rides, and a petting zoo. There will be face painting, a balloon artist and a clown; carnival and Western-themed games such as horse lasso, cornhole and corn box; and country music performances by singing cowboy Rick Pickren and The Running Fox Bluegrass Band. Kids can take part in a plant craft from 2:30 p.m.-4:30 p.m. Enjoy a Western cookout menu for lunch, with pulled pork sandwiches and grilled chicken, corn on the cob, green beans, coleslaw, and sliced watermelon. For dessert, there’s an ice cream sundae and root beer float buffet, plus a water station and summer treats and snacks available throughout the afternoon. Proceeds from the dunk tank and Western photo booth will benefit The Holmstad’s Resident Council, a resident-led committee which supports initiatives to enhance the campus, including life enrichment, employee appreciation, library and computer services, fellowship and more. Children must be accompanied by an adult. For more information about The Holmstad’s Grandparents Day Celebration, please visit www.TheHolmstad.org or call 877-226-7310.

I am so thankful that a few of my fellow Batavian’s recommended the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to me. Since I joined I feel as though I have been blessed with a second family with all the support and motivation I get from them on a regular basis. Margaret, Patti and Shirley are the most amazing women. They have great passion for business and helping people. I truly feel they care about my business on a personal level and want to see it grow and succeed as much as I do! They have gone the extra mile to get my name and my business name out there and introduce me to the business community. The Chamber has so many opportunities available that have helped my business both grow and problem solve such as the free monthly Networking It events. I highly recommend the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to all business professionals.
