Palooza 2011 another success!

The Friends of Sunflower House hosted another fabulous Palooza on October 22, raising almost $9,000 for abuse victims. Almost 400 unique painted and decorated pumpkins were ready bright and early for the over 400 children and adults that visited Sunflower House. Attendees were greeted by Happy Bear and the Sunflower House staff “Trunk-or-Treat.” Children were treated with a bounce house, a balloon artist, fun games and crafts and the world’s BEST bake sale!

 

The Great Pumpkin Palooza!

If you have not heard the news yet…Sunflower House will hold our annual Pumpkin Palooza event on Saturday, October 22 at 8:00a.m. right here at Sunflower House.  Our Friends of Sunflower House volunteers have been working very hard to make this the best Palooza ever!  There will be unique decorated and painted pumpkins for sale, a fabulous bake sale (my favorite part of ANY event!), a bounce-house, children’s crafts and a fun balloon artists–all the activities are FREE!

I hope all of you will join us for this fall, family event here at our beautiful center. This is a great event  to raise much-needed funds to support our efforts to keep children safe from sexual and physical abuse. We encourage the kids to come in costume and make sure they bring their treat bags!
