Fourth of July Kids Games-We ran kids games in the park for the Red, White, and Blue Days. This project used to be ran by the area Kiwanis Club, however their club folded due to lack of members, and we were asked to step in and take over for them. We had water balloon toss, bean bag throw, ladder rack, and potatoe sack races.
