A Look Back at Park Parties 2011

We had an amazing summer with close to 32, 000 kids and families attending our six Park Parties!  Here’s a look back at the summer.

Each week Tommy & Brook bring a fun game to the Park Party stage.  Take a look at our Allegan 60 Second STAR!

Connecting Local Non-Profits

Each Park Party hosts between 30-40 non-profit organizations that work with children and families.

Meijer Mobile Playground

Something special to our Allegan Park Party was a visit from the Meijer Mobile Playground.

We Love the Backpacks!

Priority Health has been a Maranda partner for years and every summer they come out to our events with their green backpacks and an important message.

Art Prize at Park Parties

Each week at our Park Parties, kids had the chance to make art that will be entered into Art Prize this fall.

Spreading the Safe Water Message

All summer long WOOD TV 8 has been promoting the message of Safe Water.  The Holland Aquatic Center partnered with us and worked with kids and families at our Park Parties to spread the word about playing it safe near the water.
