2022 DAY IN THE PARK

Back to Blogs


On October 27, 2022, the Early Learning Coalition of Lake County hosted our annual Day in the Park event at the beautiful Ski Beach in Leesburg! Preschoolers from around the county had fun creating crafts and exploring the arts! This event could not have been possible without the support of our sponsors and volunteers!  The Early Learning Coalition would like to thank ALL of our wonderful sponsors and volunteers for our 2022 Annual Day in the Park.

We had 729 children in attendance and over 500 adults, including chaperones and volunteers! Children attending the event had the opportunity to participate in 27 different art stops ranging from Face Painting, For Me-Top Hats, H2Olympics, Paper Bag Pumpkin, Fall Leaves, Washing Germs Away, Cardboard City, and Carnival Games.  Carver Middle School Band also performed for the children – and adults!

 Each child was invited to dance and sing with Mr. Richard!
