Inaugural Fox Valley Summer Activities Fair

Get a jump start on your child's summer plans with this one-stop shop to learn about all the great summer programs in Fox Valley and beyond!

This new community event will feature over 75 exhibitor tables. For a complete list visit Facebook.com/fvsaf.

What: First Annual Fox Valley Summer Activities Fair
Where: Wredling Middle School, 1200 Dunham Road, St. Charles, IL
When: Thursday, March 17, 6-8pm
Who: Hosted by Wredling Middle School PTO

Our vision is to offer a fun and free St Patty’s Day themed event that is a resource for our community as well as a fundraiser for our school. It will provide one-stop shopping on all of the great summer programs in our area and beyond. Our goal is to have a large number of local and regional organizations attend, with something for every child, preschool thru high school: summer classes, day and overnight camps, gifted, special needs, STEM, sports, music, arts, and other enrichment. Companies will have the opportunity to publicize their programs, meeting directly with parents and their children to answer questions and show them what you are all about.

Also: Prizes for best dressed leprechauns, face painting, give-aways such as backpacks from Chicago Parent magazine, and many tuition raffles. Jersey Mike’s and Kimmer’s Ice Cream onsite for a yummy dinner and treat too!
