October 3rd Saturday Ocotillo Hills Block Watch G.A.I.N. Event

G.A.I.N. (Getting Arizona Involved in Neighborhoods).  Another fun event with multiple Sunnyslope Block Watches and Organizations.   We grilled up hamburgers, hot dogs (veggie and regular), and chips.  A chance to meet locally elected officials, and our local community police officers!

December 2nd Saturday, Annual Sunnyslope Holiday Market & Parade

Ocotillo Hills Residents came together to design and build a float for the December 9th parade down Hatcher Rd from 7th Ave to Central Ave.  In addition, one of our residents brought their VW bus which won second place in the APS Electric Light Parade.  This was the second year, and there was so much more support from the Sunnyslope residents, there were more vendors, and more floats.  Even the Desert Horizon Precinct Police Department had a float.  There was food, music, vendors, and North Mountain Brewing and OHSO brewery each a beer tent.
