The Backyard Summer Social returns on June 22nd in the backyard space at the location on Dutton Road in Peterborough.
Director of Fund Development, Lyn Giles, says it’s always something she looks forward to.
Giles says this is an occasion they really count on to generate dollars.
Monies raised go directly to Five Counties’ Building Abilities For Life Campaign which funds priority, high-demand services like speech therapy and occupational therapy in an effort to reduce long waiting times for kids to receive these critical services.
Guests will enjoy a petting zoo, alpacas, axe-throwing, circus performers, inflatable jousting, classic picnic games, live music, drinks, treats, and foods from local vendors.
Tickets to the Backyard Summer Social are $125 each and available online or through Five Counties (email development@fivecounties.on.ca or call 1-888-779-9916, ext. 300). Along with a $75 charitable tax receipt, each ticket purchased to the Backyard Summer Social includes all food from a variety of local vendors, one drink ticket, live music, access to all activities and games, and a chance to win great prizes.
