The 2006 PLIA Pawtuckaway Kids Sandcastle Day was a bucket of fun! Twenty-three families turned out to build sandcastles and share a picnic lunch. Lauren Chaurette, head of the Pawtuckaway Kids program, did a great job organizing the event.  Thanks also go out to Janet Horvath and the Nottingham Recreation Department for helping to put on the event.
