The Assiniboia Kinettes hosted the fourth annual Children鈥檚 Fantasy Ball on March 11, 2018. This year鈥檚 theme was Superheroes. The children 鈥� dressed as superhero characters, dinosaurs or princesses 鈥� a circuit of activities to complete as part of their 鈥淪uperhero Training鈥�. After completing all the activities, the children received little prizes and had their name entered for a door prize. The Kinettes catered the event with kid-friendly snacks, including pizza, a candy bar and a cupcake tower.
聽The event chairperson, Justine Bamford, felt that the event was a success, stating, 鈥渢he kids and parents enjoyed themselves 鈥� we saw lots of smiles throughout the afternoon.鈥�
Activity leaders, including the Assiniboia Kinettes, student volunteers and members of the Assiniboia Volunteer Fire Department, manned each of the stations to guide the children through each activity. 鈥淚t was great to see the real superheroes of our community helping at the event,鈥� said Bamford. There was a visit from the Sergeant of the Assiniboia RCMP detachment who walked around visiting with the children for a while.
聽Without the support of the community of Assiniboia, including the fire department, RCMP, 小蓝视频ern Cruisers and 小蓝视频land Coop to name a few, who made donations of time, money or prize items, this type of event would not be possible. 鈥淚t gives us a great sense of pride when we see the community pull together like that to give the kids a fun afternoon,鈥� said club President Lisa Martin.聽
The Kinettes hope to continue to host this wonderful event in the future with the continued support of the community. For more information about the Assiniboia Kinettes, please visit their website at www.assiniboiakinettes.com.
