JustPlay! a Hit With Over 5000 Visitors

Photos from the event have been posted on our JustPlay! Facebook page.

Here are just a few of the comments we’ve received about this year’s festival:

“Thank-you for a wonderful event. Our intergenerational (3) all found delightful activities. People were friendly. It was great to see the face of Carol Stream up close and personal. We appreciated the green focus and health information. Loved helping our kids make the wooden toy for the super price of 50 cents! It would have been sweet if it could have lasted a bit longer but for “free” we found it an exceptional value.” – Bonnie G

Signing Up for Time Slots

To help avoid the need to line-up, we will be issuing time slot cards for some of our most popular activities. To sign up for a time slot, visit the activity station on the day, and select a time slot card from the activity supervisor. Then simply return at the time it states on the card to take part in the activity.

Activities with time-slots include: Eurobungy, bull riding, scuba diving, cupcake decorating, pottery lessons, rain barrel making, giant twister and the chess tournaments.  While the majority of our JustPlay! activities are free to take part in, a few activities have a small fee to cover the cost of materials.
