Upcoming Events

The SUN IS OUT and temperatures are rising! Are you ready? Here's a great way to get yourself SPRING TIME ready and help support the Wayzata 2021 Senior Party. The Ten Spot beauty bar is donating 15% of proceeds purchased from March 12 - 14. You can purchase gift certificates online or in person. Call your friends and schedule a Private Party before May 1 and those proceeds will support our fundraiser too! Check out their website for more information on available services.

As we know, businesses have struggled tremendously over the past year.

We are so thankful for the continued support of organizations that have still offered to donate proceeds to the Senior Party.

THANK YOU

Wayzata families for supporting these businesses and contributing to the 2021 Fundraiser.
