Goblin Success

We would like to thank everyone who came out to
the Museum's Goblin
Jamboree Fundraiser last month! Despite the blustery weekend, a lot of fun was had by all. The petting zoo and the pony rides proved to be a favorite among the growling tigers, spooky ghosts and daring pirates! With over 5,000 attendees, were able to raise over $134,000 for the Museum! Check our Flickr page and Kodak page for photos at the event!
A special thanks to
the Goblin Co-Chairs: Kristen Borsetti, Heather Olitsky & Erica Mooney and all our generous sponsors! |
