Hello Neighbor: Shenanigans Playdate
Hello Neighbor is an initiative with a simple purpose – to help those working and/or supporting their working partner “find their people” and get connected to the community.
April’s event was designed for those who have littles and are looking to enjoy quality family moments while creating lasting connections with others. Through a partnership with Alexandria Community Education and Shenanigans Indoor Playground, there will be students in attendance to assist with caring for the children while the parents have time to connect with each other.
Learn more about Hello Neighbor at helloneighbormn.org. Stay up to date with all Hello Neighbor events by texting “HELLONEIGHBOR” to (833) 352-1074.

A note from Jennifer about herself:
I am an adopted child; both of my parents are Native American but I was adopted to German/Polish parents. Fortunately my parents were committed to ensuring I knew and was connected to my heritage as I grew up, and I am excited to share this piece of it with you!
I have always loved art! So much that I earned an associates degree in Commercial Art. I simply love any kind of artistic expression: Photography, Drawing, Airbrush, Beading, and of course making Dreamcatchers!
Throughout my life I have always loved learning absolutely anything. Learning is the way of life!
I look forward to meeting you in this new class!

Galentines Taboo Game
Come spend some time with your community and remember that YOU are valued and loved for yourself, and it doesn’t matter whether you are inside a relationship, seeking a relationship, or joyfully single forever.
We are going to have a blast playing games like Taboo. You can count on lots of shouting, laughing and general silliness. This first Game Time is family friendly, and you are welcome to bring your kids. We’ll keep it PG. (Check our events calendar for the 18+ Games that come right after this)
Dress code is whatever, as long as it’s appropriate for kids to see. Wear that dress you’ve had no excuse to wear all year or go pajama party style – in fact we’ll take a dollar off any purchase over $5 if you come in footie pajamas, a cosplay costume, or dressed worthy of a Royal Ball.
Don’t spend singles awareness day being sad in a wine bottle alone, come get goofy with us instead!
