It is with great pleasure and excitement that the North Strabane Parks & Recreation Board, along with the Community Day Committee, announces the highly anticipated return of our well attended Community Day event.
Saturday, June 22, 2013 will be a day for people of this great community and beyond to come together. Mark this date on your calendar as you won’t want to miss this event!
Community Day is a free event and an opportunity for the people and businesses of our community to acknowledge our shared goals. There will be plenty of information booths, demonstrations, food, and fun to entertain the entire family, from toddlers to senior citizens. Festivities will conclude with our annual fireworks display that will light up the sky at approximately 9:30 – 9:45 pm. With that said, the North Strabane Parks & Recreation Board and Community Day Committee encourages all residents to accept the invitation to participate in this memorable day centered around the community.
We are also excited to announce that we have secured Country Singer, Chris Higbee, as live entertainment for the evening. Additional music entertainment by Tim Grealish, as well as the Four Townsmen. There is also talk of a Community Day favorite returning … the Dunk Tank! You won’t want to miss out on an opportunity to dunk your favorite township member! There will be appearances from The Pittsburgh Passion women’s football team and the Wild Things mascot.
Our Community Day Kid’s Zone will provide free activities for kids of all ages. We will have two strolling magicians and two clowns who will entertain with balloon art and face painting. We will have additional face painters at a booth. There will be a scavenger hunt which will take place throughout the park. A trackless train for kids to ride. The games this year are fish pond, tip the cat, basketball, and hill climbing, just to name a few. There will be four inflatables for hours of fun! Make sure you look for the red and white awnings because that’s where the games will be and everyone is a winner. Make sure you cool off with a sweet treat from the Hershey cart! For listening entertainment, we will have a kid-friendly DJ playing music in the Kidz Zone!
A Cornhole Tournament will begin at 3:00 pm. Pre-register by June 14 at 3:30 pm and the cost is only $5 per person, so only $10 for a two person team. $15 per two person team to register the day of the tournament. Cash prizes for top finishers.
