Pencils of Promise Field Day to Feature Games, Music, Food and More!

"Pencils of Promise" will be holding a Field Day on the Village Lawn on Saturday, April 27, from 12 noon to 3 p.m.

With the goal of raising money to help fund education for underprivileged children around the world, Pencils of Promise will be selling tickets at $5 (but additional donations are also appreciated) to compete in three-legged races, water balloon tosses, pie eating contests, and more. Winners will be awarded various prizes, ranging from Moe’s bucks to free beading lessons. Along with the games there will be music, live performances, food, and an all-around fun atmosphere.

Bring your friends to play with you or against you. All proceeds will go directly towards making a positive difference across the globe.
