MPWC Kids Fun Run and Fair to Benefit SCA Project Share
Plans are underway for the Munsey Park Women’s Club (MPWC) 6th annual Kids Fun Run and Fair. The fundraiser’s objective allows kids to help kids. The event will be held on Saturday, June 6 at 9 a.m. The beneficiary is the Manhasset SCA’s Project Share. MPWC is proud to continue its support of Project Share, whose purpose is to provide economically at-risk Manhasset students’ simple basic need items. Last year, approximately 300 children participated in the event and the MPWC raised enough money for Project Share to help over 150 Manhasset students purchase back-to-school sneakers and school supplies.
On Saturday, June 6 at 9 a.m., kids from all over Manhasset will gather to run or walk the one-mile race to show their support for Manhasset SCA’s Project Share.
The race course starts at Waldmann/Polliwog Pond on Park Avenue in Munsey Park. The Fun Run is open to all children ages 2 through 12 and strollers are welcome. Immediately following the Fun Run, there will be a fair at Polliwog Pond where racers and their families can enjoy carnival games and yummy goodies at the bake sale. Come and join the festivities. All activities will be nominally priced tickets. There will also be a raffle with many great prizes. An iPad mini, an American Girl doll and a bicycle are just a few of the fabulous prizes being raffled off.
Event sponsorship opportunities are still available. With a contribution of $300 your family, group or business name will be printed on the back of the Fun Run event T-shirts. For more sponsorship information, please contact Erin O’Connor at erin.oconnor44@gmail.com or 516-365-3842.

Early registrant entry fee is $15 per child. After May 22 through race day, the entry fee is $20. Only those preregistered are guaranteed T-shirts.
