Children who participated in the free games also walked away with their choice of toy prizes, many of which were donated by Mattel.
“The club loves hosting our annual Day for Kids. It’s a great community event that gives families the chance to play games, have some cotton candy and just spend time together,” explained Lisa Ware, director of operations at the Boys & Girls Clubs of North County. “We are extremely thankful to all our staff and volunteers that helped to make this year’s event such a success,”
For the third consecutive year, Stromsoe Insurance Agency provided Day for Kids t-shirts to all the children who attended the event, while community organizations like the Kiwanis Club of Fallbrook, the Key Club, and Kohl’s of Temecula helped provide a great group of volunteers.
