Anyone who has spent a summer in Houston knows that cooling temperatures are, indeed, a reason to celebrate!

Wesley Community Center is having their End of Summer Celebration 

Thursday, August 22, 2013, 6:00-8:00 p.m. at Saint Arnold Brewery!

Everyone is invited to come together in friendship and support to "Cheer for a Cause".

As the long, hot days of summer draw to a close, we call upon our friends—old and new—supporters, and community members to join Wesley Community Center to build and strengthen our connections and raise critically important general operating funds for our Early Learning Programs, Youth Development Programming, Senior and Social Services, Community Outreach and Economic Development services and the many individuals, children and families they benefit.

They will be celebrating the growth and transformations afoot at Wesley Community Center with a fun, exciting and refreshing happy hour. Saint Arnold's Brewing Company will offer six of their best brews on tap for your enjoyment.  Quench your thirst with an ice cold brew or sample a variety. The famous Saint Arnold’s famous sweet, flavorful old-fashioned famous Root Beer will also be available. Lady Bird Food Truck will be onsite serving an array of  summer bites so you can quell your hunger, sit back and enjoy the cool vibes from the music of the Junior Jazz Quartet. Brewery tours will be available that evening and you will be able to check out the ol’ tank farm. There will also be raffel prizes for those sports loverr out there. That is the biggest hint we can share but you absolutely want to be there!
