Fox Valley Special Recreation Association (FVSRA) is partnering with the St. Charles Noon Kiwanis to host the FVSRA Day in the Park for children with and without disabilities. On July 10, 2024, St. Charles Park District’s Pottawatomie Park will serve as the backdrop for the Day in the Park event where approximately 1000 campers and 200 counselors will come together to enjoy a day of sunshine, playing together and learning about the likeness of one another rather than their differences.
As a volunteer for A Day in the Park you will help in various activities such as:
Carnival Games
Dunk Tank
Inflatables
Water Station
Bubble Station
By volunteering for this fun event you will help to celebrate all abilities within the Fox River Valley Region.
