Funhouse FunFest Huge Success!
Friday, June 21st was exciting with the last day of school, the official start of summer and the first annual Funhouse FunFest! The community came together for an unforgettable outdoor event that brought joy and tons of fun to all who attended. The event, held on the Village Green was a resounding success, with families and friends enjoying a day filled with fun activities, and good times.
The Green was alive with the sound of laughter and excitement as families played games, savored delicious food and listened to live music. The sun shone brightly overhead, creating the perfect backdrop for a day of outdoor festivities including the very popular dunk tank and waterslide.
In addition to all the splashing, there were various other activities that kept families entertained throughout the day like face painting, arts & crafts, a bounce house, lawn games, potato sack races, sweet treats and bubbles. So. Many. Bubbles! And lest we forget the amazing homemade paella which was almost too beautiful to eat, prepared with love by our very own Funhouse ED, Ryan Carpenter and John Vechey. The mouth watering ribs were prepared by Chef Gil Becerra, and grilling up the hot dogs was Evan Westcott. A very special thank you to Maia Vechey, Funhouse President and volunteer extraordinaire for pouring her heart and soul into this very special event.
“This was by far the best, most enjoyable, fun-filled event that I have seen in a long time,” said Judi Lingren. Stephanie Iverson agreed, adding, “that was epic! Wow.” Justin Paulsen chimed in with “awesome production Funhouse crew!”
Overall, the Funhouse FunFest was a true celebration of community spirit and togetherness. Everyone came together to enjoy a day of fun, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Funhouse kid Gordon summed it up perfectly by saying,“it was life changing!” We agree Gordon! We agree. So we’re going to do it again. Here's to many more successful community events in the future!
