Many of the kids enjoyed the jousting jumper from Apollo Games. While everyone enjoyed watching the jousting I think the participants had the most fun if measured in smiles and laughter. It was a winner with the older kids and teenagers while the car jumper was a success with the younger crowd.
Roger Boucher from Watching Eye Magic had the crowd's attention as he performed his magic tricks. There were a number of kids who tried to figure out his magic tricks and participated in his magic. Sylvia from Singing with Sylvia charmed the children with her singing show.
The line-up was long for the face painting done by SCYAP volunteers. Close to 190 children were thrilled to have their faces or hands painted. We saw tigers, cats, flowers and other wonderful designs. SCYAP was a great addition to our event.
In addition to all the activities, the Saskatoon Fire Department came out with their fire truck and lots of people were thrilled to climb up and take a look at all the gadgets. The Saskatoon Police were also in attendance along with the bike patrol. Young and older enjoyed the interaction and information from the officers. Danielle Chartier, Riversdale's MLA was on hand with her daughter to take part in the festivities and brought greetings.
