🎉 Join us for a Spectacular Day at the Naramata Fundraising Festival! 🎉
Get ready for an unforgettable experience at our upcoming festival on Saturday, September 2nd, as we come together to support the wonderful Naramata Playschool Society while creating a remarkable Community Event right here in the heart of picturesque Naramata.
🌈 Our Mission: Making a Difference Together This is your chance to be part of something truly special. We are dedicated to two fantastic goals: raising funds for the Naramata Playschool and the KidsClub (our fantastic before and after school program) while uniting the community in a day of fun and excitement.
💡 What's On Our Wishlist: We have big dreams for our little learners! Our aim is to gather funds for new toys and essential items that will enhance the learning experience for our children. Imagine new tables to spark creativity on the playschool side and a plush new couch set for the KidsClub. We're even gearing up with technology, including a computer for the office and tablets to effortlessly capture and share precious moments.
🎈A Day Packed with Joy and Activities: Prepare for a day of non-stop excitement! From 10am to 1pm, dive into creativity at our Craft Table and add a splash of color at the Face Paint Table. The little ones won't resist the allure of our Bouncy Castles, ready to bounce into action from 10am to 4pm. If you're feeling adventurous, take a serene paddle on the lake with Sun ‘n Sup's Paddle Boards from 10am to 1pm. For the animal lovers, Mini Pony Rides from 10am to 12pm will surely bring smiles.
🥍 A Game with a Twist: Catch the exhilarating LaCrosse game from 1pm to 3pm, led by none other than organizer Del Halladay, founder at Elephant Island and ex-Lacrosse Pro player. It's an event you won't want to miss!
🎤 Unleash Your Inner Star: Are you a karaoke enthusiast? Join us from 4pm to 7pm for an unforgettable singing showdown hosted by the fabulous Yanti Sharples. It's your time to shine!
🎟️ Prizes Galore: Feeling lucky? Engage in the excitement of our Raffle Tickets from 10am to 6pm, with the draw sending waves of anticipation around 6.30pm. Who knows? You might just walk away with amazing prizes which include a full size adult picnic table, and lots of donations from local businesses.
🍔 Savor Every Bite: Our festival isn't just about fun and games – it's a culinary journey too! From 11am to 7pm, quench your thirst at the Beverage Garden with selections from Cannery, Elephant Island, and Creek & Gully. Treat your taste buds to a culinary adventure with delectable Hot Dogs from 11am to 3pm served by the wonderful Naramata OAP Friendship Club, and savor the flavors of Hamburgers & Mexican Street Corn from 3pm to 7pm, crafted by the talented Jacob Deacon-Evans, Head Chef at Naramata Inn. And of course, no festival is complete without classic delights like Popcorn and Cotton Candy!
Mark your calendar for September 2nd and be part of the magic. Let's create lasting memories, support our young learners, and revel in the charm of Naramata. See you there! 🎪🌟
