On October 18th, Country Lakes held its Fall Festival. What was so unique about this year’s fall festival was the participation and partnership of the three builders, Bowen, Sandlin, and Graham Hart. The fall festival was also held in conjunction with Public Safety Day. This year Country Lakes’ residents celebrated the return of fall with many activities and food. The children enjoyed the face painter, the balloon guy, the magician, the train ride, bounce houses, craft tables, and the fun costume parade. The residents were also treated to the Public Safety Events. Argyle PD brought the police car and showed weapons and equipment used by officers. The Denton PD had the motorcycle unit and the bicycle patrol demonstrate precision maneuvers and the balancing of the officers on the bikes were simply amazing. The Argyle and Denton Fire Department had the large fire trucks along with an ambulance and even Careflite landed. The CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) was represented to encourage residents to be trained in basic emergency response skills. Everyone also enjoyed the free grilled hotdogs and sausages along with chips, cookies, and a drink. Most importantly, new friends were made along with the bonding of residents and the welcoming of possible new neighbors.

If you were able to attend the Fall Festival, we are anxious to hear from you. We are planning for next year and would like your input.
