(La Porte, IN) - A stretch of downtown La Porte will take on a carnival-type atmosphere tomorrow. Krazy Healthy Kidz Day is scheduled from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
There will be games, an inflatable obstacle course, basketball, soccer, and an interactive wiffleball demonstration.
Other things include crafts, fire safety, and education in a miniature house belonging to the La Porte Fire Department and a Zumba demonstration.
Family Advocates and La Porte Family YMCA are hosting the event. Jackie Dermody, CEO of Family Advocates, says there will be free activities for children and families. In addition, Michigan Avenue will be closed from Maple Avenue to Noble Street to allow outdoor activities.
Dermody said the event is a way of celebrating children at the end of Child Abuse Prevention Month held annually in April.
“It’s kind of a little community give-back,” Dermody said.
The event will be held inside the YMCA if there’s inclement weather. People are encouraged to check the Family Advocates page on Facebook to find out if the event has been moved indoors because of the possibility of rain on Saturday.
