13TH ANNUAL DAY IN THE PARK
OCTOBER 20, 2016
SKI BEACH, LEESBURG FL
The Early Learning Coalition would like to thank ALL of our wonderful sponsors and volunteers for our 2016 Annual Day in the Park. This was the first time the Coalition hosted the event at the beautiful Ski Beach in Leesburg! The location proved to be a great location and was loved by both kids and adults alike!
In total we had 761 children in attendance along with 503 adults, including 375 chaperones and 128 volunteers! Children attending the event had the opportunity to participate in 27 different art stops ranging from Face Painting, Ocean Friends, Pinwheels, Cardboard City, Dance Your Heart Out, Games on the Green and Basketball Toss.
Each child also was invited to dance and sing with the one and only Jack Hartmann!
