The Celebrate the Young Child Collaborative event “Let’s Go on a Pirate Adventure” at Wildwood Park was held on Monday evening. The rain stopped, the clouds broke away, and the sun shone for the entire event. About 200 children, parents, and volunteers attended this Pirate-filled community event. Children were able to “Walk The Plank, make Pirate telescopes, play with bubbles, do a ring toss, interact with our Pirate athletes, and more. Pizza was served, and each child was able to take a ball home with them to encourage active play at home as well as at parks.
The Celebrate the Young Child Collaborative would like to thank all of its sponsors: Crookston Public Schools, Thrivent Financial, RiverView Health, Polk County Public Health, Tri-Valley Head Start, Crookston Early Childhood Family Education, UMC, Crookston ECI and Summit Committees, Crookston Public Library, and Our Saviors Lutheran School.
