It would be really helpful if the emails that are sent out about weekend events were sent a week or two in advance. I would have loved to have attended the events this weekend but was only notified late Friday night. That was not enough time to plan ahead. I know I should view the website but the emails are so helpful during the busy week. Thank you for considering this request.
