Making Waves and Memories at SPLASHDOWN!

Sunday, August 10 – 2025: Community Fun at Saint Barnabas’ SPLASHDOWN

This year’s SPLASHDOWN was more than just a way to cool off—it was a celebration of community. On Sunday, August 10, we welcomed familiar friends and many new faces to an afternoon of laughter, connection, and summertime joy.

Kids and adults alike dove into the fun with water balloon tosses, slip-and-slides, bouncy water inflatables, and plenty of splashing in between. The air was filled with giggles, cheers, and the sound of new friendships forming.

A special thank you to our amazing grill masters, Mr. Jim Middleton and Chris Falkenstein, who kept everyone well-fed with fresh-off-the-grill hamburgers and hot dogs. Picnic tables filled quickly as people gathered to enjoy a meal together, swapping stories over chips, popsicles, and cold drinks.

The real highlight? Seeing our courtyard come alive with conversation, kids darting between games, and neighbors connecting across generations. This is what Saint Barnabas is all about—sharing life, welcoming new friends, and creating memories that last.

Thank you to all our volunteers who made the day possible. Scroll down to relive the fun and see why SPLASHDOWN has become such a beloved tradition here at Saint Barnabas.
