New Family Summer Playdates

Before school starts, join us for a few casual summer playdates at Hamilton Park!

These are a fun, low-key opportunity for incoming Beagles to meet future classmates while caregivers connect with one another.

We'll have popsicles to enjoy, and members of the Kinder Connect Crew will be there to answer questions and help welcome new Bridlemile families.
