What's New and Exciting at Macaroni Kid Winchester

By Amanda Chapman, Publisher of the Winchester Macaroni Kid October 25, 2017

October is our family’s busiest month with three birthdays, one anniversary, soccer and more soccer, usually a vacation and, of course, our second favorite holiday…Halloween! I have survived all three birthdays and the six parties that go along with them (yes, we practically celebrate all month long!) and now I am ready to gear up for our final October event…Halloween! There are so many Fall, Halloween and Trick/Trunk or Treat events going on in our area that I have listed them all in one place to make it easier for you to find so your mini Macaronis won’t miss a single one! Make sure you check out our SPOOKTACULAR HAPPENINGS GUIDE for all of the local fun and check it often because I update it every time I find a new one to add!


Last week I mentioned about coming home from Meet Up with tons of inspiration and ideas.  I’ve already gotten a few of them off the ground…our GUEST WRITER PROGRAM, our HOW TO USE MACARONI KID GUIDE…and those are just the tip of the iceberg.  Want a few hints of what’s still to come?  Check out our GUIDES SECTION and see if you can figure out what’s coming soon to Macaroni Kid Winchester. 


High School Football Season is still on-going for a couple more weeks so make sure you find out where your local team is playing each Friday so you can be there to cheer them on!  You can find the schedule for all of the teams in Clarke, Frederick, Shenandoah and Warren counties right HERE.


Even though we haven’t made it through Halloween yet, I know some of you are already thinking ahead to Christmas.  (Honestly, so am I!)  When you’re doing your shopping this year, think local!  I love that our community supports local small businesses and Macaroni Kid Winchester wants to help make that happen!  This year, we are going to put together a HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE, which will feature local small businesses.  Do you have a small business you would like featured in our Holiday Gift Guide?  Or do you know of a small business that you think would benefit from being listed?  EMAIL ME and let me know.  We also have an INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT GUIDE that is already put together and would be another great resource to utilize for your holiday shopping!  You can find links to all of our local consultants HERE.

I try to keep our EVENT CALENDAR up to date with all of the latest events, but sometimes I miss one or two, so if you know of a kid-friendly or family-friendly event that’s coming up and you don’t see it on our calendar, you can submit it HERE or EMAIL ME with the info and I would be more than happy to add it to our Event Calendar.  


Macaroni Kid Winchester wouldn’t be what it is without all of you, our Macaroni Kid families!  I just want to send you all a huge THANK YOU for your continued love and support!  Please share us with all of your friends so more people can take advantage of all the great fun our area provides to keep our mini Macaronis entertained!  Wishing all of our Macaroni families a safe and spoooooky Halloween!!


Macaroni Love and Hugs,

Amanda
