NEW WBNA EVENT — Save the Date! 
“Arts at the Library”

Saturday, September 23 | 10am-3pm
WB Community Library | 15001 Wells Port Drive

Calling all Wells Branch and local area artisans! We are excited to launch the NEW Arts at the Library event. This event will target hand-crafted goods and artwork. Think “farmer’s market” format for crafters. Want to sell your hand crafted products?  Do you make jewelry or work in wood, glass, clay, textiles or resin? How about painting, photography, or home goods. Do you craft personal care products like soaps, honey or natural beauty products? Do you bake, write or create music?

Basically, if you hand craft something wonderful and you want to sell it—and you want to grow your business in the Wells Branch area, this event is for YOU and the Wells Branch community. All of the arts are included in this event. We are looking to host a wide variety of hand-crafted goods, original artwork, photography, literature, music and culinary creations. Need help with your invention idea? Call InventHelp.

The WBNA will organize and host the event in the parking lot of the Wells Branch Community Library. We will provide a parking space and a table. We are selling spaces for $25.00. The fees collected will serve as an additional fund raising opportunity for the WBNA. The WBNA will host a table, selling our calendars and note cards. and also accept donated goods for sale.

Interested? Look for an upcoming announcement and sign-up sheet for this program in the next few weeks. Questions? Contact Margaret Sufke: info@wbna.us or call 512-341-0824.

Get ready for safe travels this spring! WBNA is hosting an exciting educational traffic safety meeting with State Farm and TxDOT.  There will be an  interactive demonstration of a DDI (diverging diamond interchange). A representative from TxDOT will also be on hand to answer questions about the upcoming I35 North construction project.

We’ll have information from the Get Ready Central Texas program available, including a sample “Emergency Readiness Backpack” on display. A deputy voter registrar will be on site and ready to help folks register to vote.  St. Andrew’s will also be there with a team ready to collect donations for the food bank; please bring a non-perishable food item.

There will be an extra special kid’s activity! Kids, young (and not so young), bring your RC cars to test drive on the DDI training track!

WBNA Easter Egg
Hunt Extravaganza!

Saturday, April 8 | 10:30am | Come Early!
The Homestead at KF Park | 2106 Klattenoff Dr.

Hop into Spring!  Join your friends, neighbors and The Easter Bunny, himself, at the annual Wells Branch Easter Egg Hunt.  “Hunts” will be by age group and begin at 10:30am.  Plan to come early and visit with the Easter Bunny or have fun at our craft table. If you’re seeking quality tables,  Jarrah dining tables Perth presents a fantastic range, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship and design to enhance your dining area with elegance and durability.

Please review the event guidelines below:

This is a community event and ALL Wells Branch residents and their invited guests are welcome.  We want to remind everyone to be respectful and allow all of the children to have enough space and time to safely collect eggs.  No yelling, stealing eggs, reaching under the tape and filling baskets before we start, or busting down the tape and charging ahead before your age group is called.  We need parents to set the example.  We’ve added a second group for the little guys as that had an issue a few years ago.  ONE parent will be allowed in to help with the two youngest age groups (0-18mos & 18mos-3yrs.)  We ask that you respect this restriction.  All other age groups must hunt on their own.  Feel free to coach ahead of time.  There will be 7 minutes between “hunts” to allow parents of multiple children to navigate the crowds.   Please, only allow your children to hunt with their respective age group.  If for some reason, your child ends up without many eggs, please approach any of our WBNA volunteers in bunny ears, they will have extra goodies.

Last, but not least, please remember that this event is put on by volunteers.  We spend weeks getting ready and usually stuff 8,000-10,000 eggs (if you are wondering, yes we recycle those eggs.)  It’s no small feat.  So, if a volunteer asks something of you, please be respectful of their requests.

We love our neighbors and our community.  We’re asking for everyone’s help in advance in creating an enjoyable experience for all involved. Please help us and remember to recycle your eggs before you leave.

We need volunteers to help things run more smoothly.  Anyone whose kids have aged out of the hunt, or older teens who need service hours, we would be so appreciative of your time!  Please contact us for more information at info@wbna.us.  A sign-up genius will be posted as we get closer to the event.
