Mapleton Barn Pizza Farm sponsored by Jockey Being Family: Oconomowoc
September 12 @ 4:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Join the Wisconsin Family Connections Center for a fun-filled evening at Mapleton Barn Pizza Farm located in Oconomowoc, WI. This event is designed for adoptive, foster, guardianship, relative caregivers, and reunified families and individuals.
Mapleton Barn partners with Flour Girl and Flame, a wood-fired pizza truck whose menu can be viewed at https://www.flourgirlandflame.com/. One pizza voucher will be provided for every two members of your family. Pizza ordering reservations will be at 5:00 p.m. or 5:30 p.m. You will need to indicate your preferred timeslot when signing up, as spots are limited.
Seating is limited, so plan to bring lawn chairs and blankets to sit back and relax while we listen to live music from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
Please note: No carry-ins are allowed. Please respect the plants and the property by staying on the grass, out of the flower beds, and off of the trees.
This event would be a great opportunity to invite your child’s birth/first family or previous foster family. We understand this may not work for all family dynamics, but we encourage you to consider it. We hope to create an opportunity for children to have all their loved ones in one location whenever possible and create positive memories together. Please have each household register separately.
Due to the popularity of family events, please let your local WiFCC specialist know ahead of time if there is any reason you can no longer attend or need fewer tickets than you originally signed up for. We would like to accommodate as many families as possible.
This event is being sponsored by Jockey Being Family. To learn more about Jockey Being Family, visit their website here: https://www.jockeybeingfamily.com/
