Neighbors Night Holiday Potluck
Every neighbor down in Neighbor-ville liked Christmas a lot! But the Grinch on the hilltop? Well... maybe he did not!
He hated the noise and the holiday cheer, And the thought of a belly left empty this year.
It could be his shoes were pinched tight on his feet, Or maybe he just needed something to eat!
So we’re gathering ‘round for a holiday treat— A big neighborhood feast on our favorite street!
It’s time for our Annual Neighbors Night Holiday Potluck!
Bring a dish to pass round! Bring a pudding or stew! Bring a savory roast beast, or sweet goodies for two!
Bring a casserole bubbly, or bread baked up bright, And we’ll feast, feast, feast, FEAST through a glorious night!
No heart will be small, no stomach unfed, So put on your favorite sweater of green or of red!
Come laugh with your neighbors, sing loud, and stay late— Just bring your warm smile and a dish for a plate!
All guests must be 21+. We will supply disposable plates and napkins but please bring your own service ware.
