Description
Prevent Child Abuse Illinois is proud to host the 2nd Annual Downtown Springfield Family FunFest. We launched the Family FunFest last year and even though we dealt with terrible weather, we were still able to raise nearly $17,000 for the vital trainings and programs of PCA Illinois. It’s a great start, but we are confident we can do even more this year, which is where you can help!
The Family FunFest will take place Saturday, September 7th, 2019 on Washington St. between 5th and 6th Street, north of the Old State Capitol from 11:00am to 4:00pm. This is a downtown festival that is specifically geared towards children and families featuring inflatable obstacle courses & bounce houses, tons of games & activities, food trucks, appearances from some special characters, and a main stage packed with entertainment for the entire day including rock singer Betsy Buttell, children’s music writer Rachel Rambach, the animals of the Henson Robinson Zoo, nationally renowned magician Randy Kalin, and 2500-time world record holding juggler Brian Pankey! ! We’re expecting a huge turnout so this is one event you will want to be part of.
The Family FunFest serves as the signature fundraiser for Prevent Child Abuse Illinois with 100% of the profits going to fund the vital trainings and programs we provide throughout the state. (To learn more about what we do, visit www.preventchildabueillinois.org)
