Hey New Parents! Check Out This Community Baby Shower in Farmington

All expecting or new to the parenting-game folks, listen up!

The Franklin County Children's Task Force will be hosting their 2nd Annual Community Baby Shower on Saturday, May 20th from 1 to 3 pm at the Farmington Elks Lodge, located at 120 School St. in Farmington.

Last year’s undertaking was a resounding success, as more than 15 agencies contributed to providing a range of baby items for new parents and their little ones to cherish. This year's occasion guarantees to be even more entertaining, featuring amusing rubber duck-themed games, raffles for baskets overflowing with baby items, and treats to savor and bring home.
