We\u2019re having a party<\/a>, and you\u2019re invited!<\/p>\n Remember how we announced the results, chosen by our community, of the 2026 Best Of contest<\/a> in the August issue? Well, we\u2019re hosting our first-ever shindig in partnership with Summerhill Pools \u2022 Outdoor Living<\/a>, which placed second in the Best Outdoor Home Improvement services category, next week to celebrate the winners and runners-up. Food and drinks will be served, along with (we hope) a sizable helping of community joy.\u00a0<\/p>\n But we don\u2019t want to party alone, so we\u2019re inviting you to join us at 4 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 24 at the Summerhill Outdoor Showroom in the Lake Highlands area at 10720 Miller Road, #218. Tickets<\/a> are $17.59, including fees, and I\u2019m told the proceeds will help cover the cost of the event. Entry for winners and runners-up in our Lakewood\/East Dallas and Lake Highlands Best Of contests is free, but be sure to RSVP here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n We hope to see you there!<\/p>\n \t\tShare This Story, Choose Your Platform!<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI am a North Texas native with roots in Arlington and Benbrook, and I graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2018.
