Enjoy Elyson’s Great Get-Together picnic on Saturday, April 14
On Saturday, April 14, everyone is invited to Elyson’s Great Get-Together, an old-fashioned picnic with a “Wizard of Oz” theme, featuring chalk art, face painters, balloon artists, classic picnic food and drinks, and much more. The picnic will be followed by a live music concert.
The free family fun takes place from 1-6 p.m. at Elyson community, located at Grand Parkway and FM 529, between I-10 West and U.S. 290 West.
Dorothy will greet residents and guests as they arrive at Elyson’s Model Home Village, and there will also be a living Tin Man statue and a Scarecrow on jumping stilts.
A chalk artist will help kids create their own artwork with Wizard of Oz themed templates. Face painters, balloon artists, and arts and crafts activities will add to the fun, and a DJ will be on hand to spin tunes.
Kids of all ages can also enjoy train rides around the Model Home Village, a hamster ball collision course and farmyard inflatable play areas. Guests will also enjoy carnival games like tic tac toe, ring toss, can smash, sack races and a hula hoop station.
Delicious treats will include cotton candy, popcorn, mini funnel cakes and lemonade.
From 4-6 p.m., everyone is invited to enjoy live music on the event lawn at Elyson House, right next door to the model homes.
