****Weather conditions are unpredictable – our general rule of thumb is to postpone an outdoor event if the percentage of the chance of rain/storms is 40% and higher with no indoor space readily available. We will typically make the call no later than 2 hours before the event – please note that weather conditions can change suddenly so a call may be made closer to the time of the event start time. In the case of sudden inclement weather, we ask that families/group homes work to secure transportation home for their Core Member at the event. Astonished staff will work with families and group homes to assist in making the arrangements*****
We hope you can make it out!!!!
