To celebrate 25 years in Oak Creek, Georgie Porgie’s Treefort Restaurant is hosting a 25th anniversary community celebration on Saturday, Oct. 1 from 1 to 5 p.m. at the Oak Creek location at 9555 S. Howell Ave.
The free event will include inflatables, games courtesy of Chasing Tales in Oak Creek and face painting for the youngest Treefort fans.
