It Was Great!

Leap Day 2012 was a smashing success.  It did my heart good to see kids and their parents having such a great time.

By far the most popular equipment was the bounce house, followed by the roller coaster and trampoline, but I saw every single toy or piece of equipment being used at some point, if not continually....even if some items were not quite used as I'd envisioned.  Some enterprising older kid discovered that the Tot Tunnel could be used as a costume, and he or she was walking around in it!  I'm not sure Happy Hoppers were meant to be used as basketballs, but they didn't seem to do any harm.  Don't forget to save those stamped passports to display proudly in your child's schoolwork portfolio.

Door prizes will be distributed next week.  Thanks so much to the businesses and organizations that supported us, including Billy and Nancy Greer of the Jing Ying Institute of Kung Fu and Tai Chi, Jeanne Calderon and Heather McCune-Hustwit of Music Together Chesapeake, and several other businesses contributing informational freebies or door prizes.  A visit from Louie of the Bowie Baysox brightened our day tremendously, especially on the heels of a brief power outage in the morning.  I'd be remiss not to thank the Severna Park Community Center for their beautiful facility and outstanding service.  A pink and brown child's coat and a pair of dark blue striped child's socks were left there in the Lost and Found.
