Union Family Oktoberfest on October 24 | 10 am | Jefferson Park
We hope that you are all staying healthy and well. As the days get shorter and colder, this is the perfect time to gather and connect! We invite you to Union’s Oktoberfest with a fish & loaves story, an opportunity to assemble “stop-light kits,” and connect over a warm sandwich. There will be a panini truck! Lunch is on us!:)
