Hi Maranda-
Just wanted to say we had a ball at the park party. We thought that group 3 of A Kind was awesome in Kalamazoo, we loved the positive message which we need more of. I just wish that they had music to all of the songs they sang, my son just loved the performance part with the dancers It’s a blast. How can we get in contact with them, we would like to know if they would come and perform at our church and possibly our school this upcoming year. Do they have a cd that is for purchase? Thanks

Maranda,I just wanted to thank-you for giving our kids a fun filled great day today. Even our picky eater found enough in the lunch to fill her up, and then they felt they were spoiled with all the free things they came home with from all the different sponsers; who also need a round of thanks.I really did enjoy today just seeing all the happy childrens faces.Thank-you again and God bless you for all you have done.

I am wondering if there will be any food at the Allegan party. I am bringing my grandmother that is a diabetic and wondering if she should eat lunch beforehand, or if there will be something that we will be able to purchase. Thanks!!

I am planning to bring by step grand sons to Allegan’s pary in the park on Thursday. We are all really excited — especially me — can’t wait! What a fun thing to do for the community! Thank you in advance.

Hey Maranda-
Thank you for putting together the 5/3 Ball Park Maranda Park Party. We had a blast even though it was a blistering, sweltering, hot day. Our favorite booths were the Country Fresh bounce house and ice cream, Craig’s Cruisers and Priority Health backpacks. The music selections were so fun! We loved hearing Miley Cyrus! We got our picture taken with the Grand Rapids Griffin, he was so cool but I bet he was hot. It was a fun field trip and hopefully we can come next year.

Thanks!

Hi NikkiLyn-
We loved coming to John Ball Park for our parties, but as our crowds have gotten larger over the years, we’ve outgrown their park. We have been at Garfield Park that past two years instead.

We have two parties left this summer….hope to see you there!

Hi Judy-
I’m not familiar with where the Edison Neighborhood is located. Where is your town? We’d love to consider your town for a party, but in order to do so, we need a letter written from a city official on why we should come to your town and recommendations on a park site. We review all our letters of request in the fall and make a decision by January of the following year.

Thanks!
Jamie
