Annual Community Festival

We know last year's Festival of Fun and Fitness has left vivid and enduring memories in the mind of all those who attended but this is just to let you know that you should be practising your giggles and gales of laughter in the garden, in the shower, wherever the moment presents itself because 2010's Community Festival is going to be a ripper!  The theme is

 "Laugh out Loud"

or, for anybody in touch with technology, LOL, and we'll be looking to tickle your funnybone with the activities and entertainment provided.  Sunday October 24th is the day, 12 noon to 4.00pm the times and we'll be looking to provide you with some simple joy and fun!

The event is free and open to all age groups and backgrounds with activities of interest to both adults and children alike.  Try out the oversized board games, Bungee Run, Body Socks, cartooning, juggling and balloon sculpting to name just a few.  The festival will also feature entertainment by Wobbles the Clown, Cloggers, Laughter Yoga, the Aust. National Yo-Yo champion(15yo Vu Ho!), Circo Bats, and a roving comedian.

Come and Laugh Out Loud with your friends, family and total strangers.  It's a feel good day to be enjoyed by all and it's sponsored by the City of Onkaparinga, The Government of South Australia and LJ Hooker of Blackwood.
