Please scroll down to see all the announcements. The time has come again for the Justine Blainey Wellness Centre’s 4th annual Children’s Health Festival. Our festival is taking place on Sunday September 27th from 12:00pm-3pm and will be raising money for a very worthy cause Child Find Ontario. We are looking for some one to face paint and possibly a balloon animal person to help us out for 3 hours on Sept 27th. More information can be found on our website on www.blaineywellness.com. We are able to offer the option of helping you to promote your business by including a flyer/information in our 500 loot bags and if I am notified by Thursday (Sept 24th) we can also include information on our ½ page ad in the Brampton Guardian. Child Find Ontario assists in locating missing children by education programs in Ontario. They rely on the efforts of volunteers to help reunite these children with their parents. Of the 66,548 cases of missing children reported in 2005, Ontario has the highest proportion per capita at 22,503 missing children. They need our help. Why this event?
We hope that you will be able to participate in our event to help promote the health and safety of children! If you require additional information regarding the festival, please feel free to contact me at any time. Thank you! Have a wonderful day!

Last year, in these two locations alone, over 450 walkers and their families helped Canada’s only 24-hour, toll-free, confidential web and phone counseling service for kids raise over $60,000 and this year we’re hoping for $70,000 to contribute to our national goal of $3 million! We love for families to come out and walk together, so we offer children’s entertainment throughout the event. We are looking for clowns, magicians, facepainters, balloon artists, or jugglers to entertain our kids. There is no payment being offered, but this is a chance to be a part of one of Canada’s largest fundraisers, and promote your services to families in Hamilton/St. Catharines. For more information, contact Meghan Nicholls at 416-581-8957 or meghan.nicholls@kidshelpphone.ca.

June 14/08 from 10-4pm. We would welcome strolling clowns throughout the day (feel free to hand out business cards) and would love the opportunity to offer a caricaturist to the kids and “young at heart” visitors. This is a fundraiser for the Safety Village. We provide scheduled educational safety training through the local police and fire prevention officers to kids from kindergarten to grade 6. We want to keep kids safe! The Kids Street Festival 2007 was nominated as one of the “Best Attractions” and submitted to the Brantford Tourism Shining Star Awards. We were very honoured to receive such a nomination only after our first year! If you are willing to help us out and fill the Village with smiles, chuckles and do what you do best, then please contact me directly at vspadoni@csvbrant.ca Thank you, Vicky Vicky Spadoni Marketing Coordinator

Meadowest Cooperative Preschool is located in the heart of Meadowvale. Situated in the Meadowvale Community Centre, the pre-school provides children with a variety of play centres which enhance their social, physical, emotional and intellectual skills in a safe, secure and happy environment.
In our continued efforts to provide our children with the best possible introduction to school, we rely on fundraising events to supplement the overall operation of the preschool.
On Saturday, October 28th, 2006, we are hosting our Annual Trike-a-Thon and Silent Auction. At the trike-a-thon, students ride their favorite tricycle, tractor, bike, etc… around a small track and collect sponsorship money for doing their laps. The money raised from this event contributes to special purchases for the school. This year, we are hoping to purchase badly needed school supplies.
This will be a carnival-themed atmosphere, and we are badly in need of a clown/face painter from 10am - 1pm.
Unfortunately, being a non-profit organization we have no budget for this type of thing, so in other words, you wouldn't receive compensation - just the glory.
If anyone is interested, please contact Cheri @ cherir@rogers.com.
Thanks!

I am a member of a group called the Crown Point Community Council, and we are a small group of volunteer parents who for 5 years have run an Easter Egg Hunt at St. Christopher's Park ( 119 McNulty Blvd.) in the east end of Hamilton, near the Centre Mall for children between the ages of 0-12. We are currently looking for some volunteer clowns, face painters, balloonists, artists or any other entertainer that may be able to offer a couple of hours of their time towards this events. We would love to have an Easter Bunny who may show up for the kids as well or some Chickens or anything that may be of special interest towards the children. Our Easter Egg Hunt will be on Saturday April 15th from 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. and we currently have the Community Health Care Bus, The Canadian Paraplegic Association and some other organizations that have offered their time to us. We do not make any money on this as it is strictly an event for the children and we do sell hot dogs, drinks and bake goods to help with our costs. If there is anyone that thinks they may be able to give us a few hours of their time it would be greatly appreciated. For more information please contact Bev Dexter - 905-549-5471 or at bevdexter@hotmail.com and I can give you more information on this upcoming event. Thanks so kindly, Bev

The Albion Community Association is holding
its 27th Annual Victoria Day festival from Friday May 19th until Monday
May 22nd. This great community festival attracts more than 20,000 people
on Sunday alone for our spectacular fireworks display, car show and
midway. This year we have decided to concentrate Sunday around kids &
family based activities. We have invited 6 local charities to organize
their own fundraising activities on that day and take advantage of the
crowd present waiving the standard booth fee's so that may profit from the
event. We the Albion Community Association are a not for profit group
consisting of only a handful of volunteers and would appreciate anything
that will help us draw more people to the event and help these great local
charities towards their goals. We can offer some prime spots for retail
for free in exchange for a performance on our children's stage or even a
walk around the crowd. Please contact me if you are interested in helping
us, I thank you in advance for your timely positive response.
