What is Happening?
Fun Slides is working alongside Toys For Tots this year! If you haven’t heard of them before, they’re a non-profit charity run by the United States Marine Corps Reserve. Since 1947 they’ve been distributing toys to children whose parents cannot afford to buy them gifts for Christmas. To date, they have helped over 280 million children have presents under their trees.
Throughout the month of December, you can donate toys here at Fun Slides Carpet Skate park to aid in their cause. And to say thank you, we will provide you with $5 off all admission costs for the rest of the year.
