Kiwanis Brings Outdoor Carnival to Lehigh Valley Children’s Centers

ALLENTOWN, Pa. - Sept. 18, 2013 - PRLog -- Allentown, PA – The Kiwanis Club of Allentown sponsored an outdoor carnival and picnic at the Allentown Rose Garden for preschoolers attending Lehigh Valley Children’s Centers (LVCC) on Tuesday, September 17th.

Fifty-nine preschool and pre-kindergarten children from two LVCC locations (South Mountain and Walnut Street) discovered fun, active education while running through obstacle courses, competing in miniature sailboat races, blowing giant bubbles, jumping inside a bounce castle, and shooting hoops.

Kiwanians, with the aid of William Allen High School Key Club members, planned and organized all the activities.

Allentown West End firemen brought a fire truck to the carnival and engaged the children with a presentation about fire safety.
