Welcome to Lights On
Our Lights on Afterschool Event was a sucess. We had a carnival theme for our event. The children participated in many carnival games ( Bottle Knock down, Pin the Tail, Indoor Golf, Ballon Popping,etc.) for each game tha children won tickets . The children cashed in the tickets that they won for prizes such as face painting, stuffed animals, games etc. The tickets were also used for the children to purchase popcorn, candy apples, drinks, cookies, cakes, and much more. A member of our staff dressed up as a clown and another was Raggady Ann the were a big hit with the children.The children did not eant to go home at the end of the day so this is how we know the day was a sucess.copyright © 2006 pnn.com, all rights reserved
