… at a big Lake Highlands Area Early Childhood PTA fundraising event in conjunction with the group’s 50th anniversary — that’s half a century of supporting Lake Highlands’ children, families and community. This month the organization’s sixth annual tour of homes plus a brunch and auction aim to raise funds so that LHAECPTA can continue to make a positive impact on our neighborhood. Three Lake Highlands homes — including one of a former HGTV “Design Star” contestant — are on the Wednesday, April 14 tour that kicks off at the Highland Oaks Church of Christ at 8:45 a.m. The silent auction features kids’ items and activities, gift baskets and entertainment event packages, to name a few, and because the event serves as the April LHECPTA meeting, childcare will be available, for a fee, in the church nursery. Tickets are $25. Find more information at lhaecpta.org.
