Spring Fling

We hosted our annual Spring Fling on March 25, 2012 and it was a huge success! First, we would like to thank all of the wonderful businesses, resaurants, agencies, and individual volunteers and donors who made this day possible. Without your help and contributions the Spring Fling would not have been nearly as successful. When it was all said and done, we had a total of 885 attendees and 115 volunteers. We all had a blast!


The hay ride was a favorite all day. There were always kids waiting in line to hop on the next ride.


The maze was so much fun and provided great entertainment for kids of all ages!


This game was a crowd favorite!


Our grill-masters hard at work!


The fishing game was a great way to spend some time in the shade and win a cool prize.


The kids loved showing off their face paint!


Everyone loved practicing their football skills in hopes of winning some candy!


The treasure dig was such a fun way to hunt for prizes.



We had two Easter egg hunts, one for the older children and one for the younger children. They had such a great time hunting and showing off their eggs!
  
We owe a huge thank you to the Tuscaloosa Police Department! The kids couldn't get enough of the car, motorcycle, and helicopter they brought.

Spring Fling was such a wonderful day and we were so thrilled to be able to serve our community in such a fun way.
