How to get there: From Chehalis, take State Route 6 about three miles west of downtown and turn right on Chilvers Road, then take an immediate left onto Stearns Road. Take another left onto Water Street, and the church will be on your left.
Let’s Play Something will be doing our first Funtime Festival KID FEST at the Napavine Community Park (on the baseball fields) on July 16th.
We’ll be getting doused for charity (benefiting the Youth Advocacy Center), have bounce houses from The Hop Shop (just $5 for an all day wristband to jump), balloon animals by Mr. Twister, face painting, a local business scavenger hunt, and so much more!!
Be sure to check it out! We’ll start right after the Funtime Festival parade ends, around noon (parade starts at 11am).
