Due to Lake Waconia Beach closing, there are some changes regarding the Kids & Preteen Beach Bash. This event will be held at the same location (8170 Paradise Ln, Waconia, MN 55387) but this will now be a picnic style event!

Families are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or blanket as well as a sack dinner. Snacks will be provided and there will be games, crafts, and other activities to enjoy for the night. We will meet at the lawn in front of the beach.
