KINDERGARTEN *entertainer, performs a colorful magic show where *every
child is a star* and *guaranteed to laugh*!

For over 15 years, The Great Zucchini has been entertaining young children
as a magician and preschool teacher. He performs his hands-on, interactive
magic shows for more that 400 groups a year. His experience, coupled with
his gentle nature and wacky facial expressions, makes kids immediately feel
comfortable and ready to laugh.The wonder of magic, silliness of comedy,
and interactive nature of The Great Zucchini’s show keeps children on the
edge of their seats. Watch your kids’ faces light up as they see things
disappear and reappear.

This is a FUNDRAISER to help us year round improve Hamilton and Upshur

We had a great day of landscaping this past Saturday at Hamilton Park.  A HUGE thank you to Dan Barry, Carol Herwig, Brent Sisco, Charlie Myers, Channce Allen, Howard Ways and Adrian Hunnings who gave their whole day landscaping and plating trees.  We can’t wait until spring to see it all in bloom.  Thanks again to all the volunteers who came out! 

A HUGE thank you to all of you who came out to support our parks at the annual silent auction and cocktail party at the Intown Uptown Inn.

All year round we work to improve our neighborhood parks and we need your help–your time, talent and financial contributions.  You can donate online every day of the year on our web site and if you have time to volunteer please contact Maria at mariabarry@gmail.com
