CONTEST !!!!!!

Hi Everyone!

We're running a new contest starting today & ending this THURSDAY JUNE 25th at 5pm.

As many of you know, I believe that there's lots of great events for very young children in the area, yet once they are too old to be captivated by a puppet show there's not that much out there.

Well here's something that will kick the KW area into High Gear for our "Big Kids"

SCHOOLZ OUT!

You've saw it advertised in the blast, but now we have the info & a TICKET GIVEAWAY!

Are your kids too old to see THE BACKYARDIGANS, but too young to see ALEXIS ON FIRE? Do they want a little independence, but under your watchful eye?

SCHOOLZ OUT HAS THE ANSWER FOR YOU!

It's a Rock Concert for KIDS!

It's being held at Fed Hall -UofW (Columbia St) entrance.

This Sunday June 28th

It's split up for 3 different times depending on the child's age.

Parent are welcome to watch the concert with the kids, or sit in a separate "PARENT LOUNGE"

The times are as follows

Children in grades 4 & 5 concert time is 1pm

Grades 6& 7 at 4:30pm

& Grade 8 at8pm

Each concert lasts about 2 & half hours & there will be pizza for sale on site.

Tickets are $18 at the door (required for each child & parent) or SAVE CASH BY BUYING IN ADVANCE! Just $15
