Gage County United Way will host its annual Community Carnival on Saturday, August 20th from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm at Chautauqua Park.
The free event includes carnival games, rope making, inflatables, crafts and popcorn. Local emergency and law enforcement vehicles will be on display. Snow cones and hot dogs are available for purchase.
“As part of United Way’s application process, partner agencies agree to participate in our annual Community Carnival,” said Melanie Laflin, Gage United Way District Director.
“The purpose of the carnival is a way for United Way’s partner agencies to give back to the community. It’s also a good way for agencies to get an opportunity to meet people to get their message out to community members and let them know what services are available.”
Thirteen partner agencies will be involved including YRI, CASA of Gage County, Beatrice Special Olympics, Mother to other Ministries, Boy Scouts, BVCA Wishlist, TeamMates, YMCA, Willow Center, Community Players, 4-H, Foster Grandparents and Mosaic.
