FRIDAY Nov 22, 2019
LIGHTNING, RAIN, SORRY!
Little A’s Cancelled Friday Nov 22, 2019. The weather is a fickle beast and we have gotten it wrong for the second time this season. The storms are too close for comfort and because of our safety policy (no Little A’s when there is lightning about) we are not able to run Little A’s at ES Marks tonight. SORRY!!!
