I sure hope you made it to our Summer Camps & Activities Fair! It was such a blast from beginning to end.
When the Fair opened at 10 a.m. there were 400 people lined up at the door! We were giving away 4 chances to win 4 tickets to High School Musical: The Ice Tour, which was quite an incentive to get people out on a chilly morning. But that wasn't the only thing we gave away - we had a bunkbed from Baby's Room & Kids, Too, and all the stuff you've seen in my previous blog entries PLUS 25 cases of Ale-8 One and loads of giveaways from our booths.
The performances by kids groups were amazing. I hope you saw the Sho Stoppas. They are an amazing group of hip hop dancers who actually won a competition in New York on the BET Network. We also had some beautiful models from Images, gymnasts from Legacy Gymnastics, cheerleaders from Jessamine Ice All-Stars and ballerinas from the Kentucky Ballet Theatre.
Lexington Gymnastics brought a HUGE and I mean gigantic inflatable slide. One of my interns and I had to try it out before the Fair started - what a hoot. You should have seen this 47-year-old sliding down this giant slide. I'm sure I looked ridiculous, but man, was it fun.
We held a Best Booth Contest this year. It was so hard to choose between all the great booths that were set up, but Central Baptist Church's PowerLab 2008 took home 1st prize! There booth looked like a giant mad scientst's lab and it was just as much fun. Gattitown won second prize with a luau theme including inflatable monkeys and palm trees, video games and grass skirts. Kentucky DanceSport was our third winner. Their staff wore gorgeous sequined gowns and spent the whole Fair teaching moms, dads and kids how to dance.
Well, that's all I have time to blog about now. I'll be back later to give you more details.
