Parents, parternships and more

So four years ago, we celebrated our 100th anniversary.

And as part of that, the club decided that we wanted to do a service project.

And so at lunch one day at a meeting, I was talking to the director of the Salvation Army.

And he's like, you know, I'd really like to do an event inside the Salvation Army.

And from there, we decided that he really wanted inflatables.

And so it just kind of grew from there.

We decided we were going to do a kids event at the Salvation Army.

And four years ago, we've been doing it ever since.

Okay.

So first of all, inflatable, what is that? What does that mean?

uh, inflatables like blow up slides and, uh, sports things.

You can throw footballs, you can throw or shoot basketballs,

bounce houses, bounce

houses, everything.

And, uh, but then we also had expanded arts and crafts and expanded to, uh, our local, uh, UIS soccer team coming out and having the kids kick goals and do cone drills and, and things like that.

Okay.

And it's all housed right there in the gym at the salvation army.

And, uh, It's just a great project.
