HIHA Annual Hayride, Carols and Cookie Exchange

This popular annual event sponsored by the Harbor Isle Homeowners Association will be on Saturday, December 17th starting at 6:00 pm. 

Participants should plan to bring 1 dozen cookies to share (that evening with our cocoa)  and 1 dozen cookies to exchange.  Cookies are placed on a table and you pick out a dozen from the many selections available (mix them up) to take home.  If you bring 2 dozen to exchange, then you can take home 2 dozen, etc.  Plan to bring a container with which to take your swapped cookies home.  Hot cocoa will be provided.  Once a bit of social time has been exchanged, the holiday decorated hay wagon will set off around 6:30 pm for singing around the neighborhood.  There is limited seating on the wagon itself, so often parents and small children walk alongside the slowly moving hayride.  So strollers and wagons are a good thing to bring should you be in that situation.  Please bring a flashlight if you have one.

The wagon caravan will return back to its starting point where Santa's grotto, more cookies and the movies "A Charlie Brown's Christmas" and "Elf" will be available for viewing.  Bring chair and/or blanket if you plan to stay for the movie. 

WE ARE DISCOURAGING BIKES, SKATEBOARDS, SCOOTERS(anything that could be propelled in front of the wagon or traffic). ALSO, AS MUCH AS WE LOVE OUR FURRY MEMBERS OF THE THE FAMILY, PLEASE LEAVE THEM AT HOME ON THIS NIGHT.  WE may need a volunteer golf cart---PLEASE CONTACT A. GILLETT AT 727-480-7187 IF YOU CAN ASSIST WITH THAT.
