Thank you to everyone who supported Children's Fest
We're excited to share with our membership that attendance at Children's Fest exceeded previous years!
Co-Chairs Janet Kelly, Rotary Club of Windsor (1918) and Patrick Kelly, BANA were thrilled that Children's Fest was able to come back so strong! "We think everyone was ready for a fun children's event after COVID. We truly appreciate the support of our many sponsors, vendors, entertainers and advertisers that contributed to making 2022 our best year yet" says Janet.
New this year was the addition of Food Trucks, which were very well received!
The proceeds from this event will proudly support local Rotary projects and BANA (Bulimia AnorexiaNervosa Assn.) projects and programs.
