About Family Fun Fair 2008

Grab a pen and your calendars, turn to September 6^th and mark this day off for our fifth annual fundraising event: the Family Fun Fair 2008! Based on your feedback, we've decided to give our Ultimate Sports Day fundraiser a makeover into a new and exciting Carnival-themed Fair. It's sure to guarantee the same fun we've had in the past, with some new faces, more games, great eats and of course tons of prizes!

The event will take place in the same location as last year, at Moody Elementary School. Situated in the heart of Port Moody, we're hoping the highly family-oriented community will grasp the chance to come out and share the day with us. The Fair will act, not only as a great back-to-school celebration for the kids, but also as an exciting opportunity for the tri-cities to unite together and make a difference in aiding a greater cause.

Though we are focused on creating a fun and memorable event, the main purpose of our fundraising is to reach our ultimate goal of purchasing a building of our own. Owning our own facility would enable us to expand our services, which would include respite care to families in need, a kitchen facility to teach life skills and activity rooms available for training and educational purposes. Our facility could even be used by the community at large for social functions, workshops or service group meetings.

We've been hosting numerous mini fundraisers to support the Fair, including hot dog sales, a bottle drive and a penny drive. We appreciate all your support thus far with our fundraising endeavours and hope that you'll spread the word and join us for the Family Fun Fair 2008!
