THE LEAVES ARE FINALLY CHANGING…

…pumpkins are seen at every street market, and Fall is in the air at Lane & Associates!

This season has a lot of special and fun memories for many of our employees, so we thought we would round up some of their favorite Fall traditions and Halloween costumes for a spotlight on our dedicated team members. It’s important to share memories with others and each of us have a story to tell. Take a look at our team’s traditions & stories below!

 

Our Cary Tryon team member, Lilly, shared, “Halloween is my favorite holiday! And as a requirement every year my family has to follow a theme. We all have to have a story.”

“For my son’s first Halloween, 2015, he was Chucky, dad was Freddy Kruger and I was a vampire. For Halloween 2016 my son was Captain Hook, I was Tinker Bell and dad was Peter Pan! He wore tights! For 2017, my son was a dragon, my daughter was a princess, dad was a dragon slayer, and I was his fair maiden. This year we are going with a superhero theme. My son will be Hulk, dad will be Thor, and my daughter and I will be Wonder Woman and wonder baby!”

Our Marketing Coordinator, Stephanie, LOVES Fall. Here are her favorite things to do over the season: “Fall is my favorite season! Partly because my birthday is in October…so I just get excited as September approaches. I “Fall” into the category of pumpkin spice lover, so I have to wait all year long to get my fix.”

“My favorite early Fall tradition is stalking Trader Joe’s and waiting for their pumpkin spice pancake mix to hit the shelves. As soon as it does I feel like I can begin all the fun things…decorating and enjoying hearty soups. #ILOVEFALL” Check out her seasonal decorations!

 

Many of our employees dressed up for Halloween this year at the offices.

Two of our favorites were our Roseboro and Pittsboro offices. Our Pittsboro office chose to do a magical Unicorn land with Rainbows, clouds, and Skittles galore! Dr. Flynn even brought a fuzzy Rainbow pen around with him to sign patient charts.

Last but not least, our Roseboro office dressed up as animals & friends on a Farm. Plus, Dr. Miller was the Farmer. Our favorite touch is definitely the “EAT MOR CANDY” sign imitating the Chick-fil-a cow though. Way to be creative!

So many more of our offices participated and here is a collage below! We absolutely love the participation this year and are so proud to call these fab-boo-lous employees ours!

Looking for something fun to do in Raleigh NC this weekend?! Join your Raleigh Lane & Associates dental team at the 19th Annual Caniac Carnival on September 30th for a FREE event to all fans of the Carolina Hurricanes!

When is the Caniac Carnival in 2018?

This year the Caniac Carnival will be on Sunday, September 30th from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Where is the Caniac Carnival being held?

The 2018 Caniac Carnival will be located at the PNC Arena in Raleigh NC at 1400 Edwards Mill Rd. Raleigh, NC 27607.

Who will the Carolina Hurricanes be playing on Sunday, Sept. 30th?

For the FREE pre-season game, the Hurricanes will be hosting the Nashville Predators at 1:30 p.m. Please visit the Carolina Hurricanes website for tickets information.

What part of the Festival is actually FREE? ALL OF IT!

The carnival itself is completely FREE and open to the public but the pre-season game requires tickets due to space. At this time, all pre-season free tickets have been claimed but according to the Canes website, you can sign up for the waitlist to be notified if tickets become available here. If you can’t get tickets to the actual game, you can still participate in the outdoor Caniac Carnival. There will also be FREE parking and attendants will direct you to the correct lots.

What activities will they have at the Caniac Carnival?

A better question would be what WON’T they have at the Caniac Carnival this year. All ages will have something fun to do! There will be bouncy houses, inflatable rides, interactive games, food trucks, a Kid’s Zone, a Sports Area, Live Music, and appearances by Stormy and the Pepsi Storm Squad! Since our Lane Raleigh dental team participated last year as well we know that you absolutely cannot miss the face painting or spin for a prize at our prize wheel!

CARY LAZY DAZE FESTIVAL 2018: WHEN, WHERE, AND WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

*Above: Cary Lazy Daze 2018 Featured artist Roxanna Jo Alexander‘s rendition of Lane & Associates Family Dentistry’s Logo!*

WHEN

When is Cary Lazy Daze Festival in 2018? The Festival runs over the span of two days: Saturday, August 25th, and Sunday, August 26th. Each day there will be a schedule of entertainment on the main stage, vendors selling local art & crafts, and food trucks lining the outskirts of the event. We are especially looking forward to the chalk exhibit by nationally known Chalk artist Lisa Gaither, featuring a 3D Chalk painting of floating balloons over a dark cliff. The artist posted a “before” photo of what the exhibit will look like below. Check it out!

WHERE

Where will Cary Lazy Daze Festival take place in 2018? The festival will be held in Downtown Cary, NC from Academy Street to Wilkinson Avenue and around Ambassador Loop. Pro Tip: Start from one end of the event and make your way around! There will be plenty to see along each section & maps will be posted throughout the area so you won’t miss out on any goodies (including food which is in section F, we checked!). Many of the nearby churches and schools will have FREE parking and additional parking will be available all along the outskirts of the streets but get there early for a good space! Check out a map of the event below!

WHY

Why should I attend the Cary Lazy Daze Festival in 2018? If you are a fan of Food, Music, Art, Culture, and Local events – you don’t want to miss this! Since we were sponsors of the event last year we got to see the amazing vendors and entertainment all weekend long. An art vendor across from us had an amazing Light bulb exhibition that shone brightly throughout the weekend and many attendees found really great art deals throughout the event. We saw so many people going home with $15 cotton wreaths that we thought JoAnna Gaines was in town! Our last reason, but certainly not least, is that Lane & Associates will have DOOR PRIZES for adults and even a FREE T-shirt decorating station at our booth for kids! It will be an event the entire family will enjoy and we can’t wait to see you there!

Above: Last year’s light bulb and metal vendor.

Come decorate FREE T-Shirts!! Look for the Blue and White striped tent with our gold “We love to make you smile!” flag!
