Woodland Lights

Woodland Lights is a unique lighting display and “winter wonderland” is held each year at the Washington Township Rec Center and is a MUST SEE & DO with the fam! Kids young and old are delighted by the light displays, hot cocoa and special treats made available only during the holiday season. If you haven’t stopped by – you will want to put this on the list and come on out soon!

CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO PRODUCTION TIMED PERFECTLY WITH THE MUSIC AND THE LIGHTS!!!

Indoor Playgrounds

With the weather starting to get cold it’s easy to stay cooped up inside.  Don’t let that happen to you.  There are plenty of things to do, one thing being indoor playground areas.  This could be for adults, kids, or both!  There are many places to go on this list, including Little Gym of Dayton, Scene 75, Run Around Fun Town, EnterTRAINment Junction, and more!  Some of these places cost to go to, but some are free.  Keep moving this winter, don’t let the weather bog you down!

Stubbs Park First Snow

Beautiful and breath taking (not just because of the temperature!) this winter wonderland is sure to delight your senses and make it feel like the holidays are just around the corner…

Stubbs Park is a wonderful park setting that sits in Centerville – amidst the trees, the ponds and the outdoor experience for music, gatherings, relaxation. Seeing the winter snow cover the ground and glisten was just too beautiful to pass up for our video community spotlight series!  we will likely have MORE to SHARE of this wonderful place as the seasons change…

Yummy & Healthy Food is HERE!

Finding time to eat can sometimes be difficult – and then making sure you are eating “healthy” can be even more difficult in this fast paced busy life we lead!? So glad that CoreLife Eatery has opened in our Centerville area and WOW is it good food AND healthy… from the fresh ingredients, plant based food source, tempting flavor combos to the delicious drinks – make CoreLife Eatery a part of your lunch or dinner plans and ENJOY the health benefits.

If you are in the Centerville / Kettering / Bellbrook area – this is a perfect spot to get to for your next meal…

(Of course it does not hurt that the “two Tammy’s” just naturally get along!!!)
