Kids, grab your friends and family and do not miss the
Atlanta-area’s premier
Kidsfest event! Sponsored by the
City
of Avondale Estates and presented by
The
Museum School of Avondale Estates, Kidsfest will be held
October 1, 2011, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the intersection
of Pine Street and Franklin Street in quaint Avondale
Estates. Admission is free, and activity wrist bands will be
sold onsite. All proceeds benefit The Museum School and
will be used for much-needed school resources. “Avondale Estates is proud to sponsor the inaugural
Kidsfest event,” says Ed Rieker, Mayor of Avondale Estates.
“We are proud of our little museum town and look forward to
welcoming children, families, and kids at heart for this
special event. In Avondale Estates, you will find a unique
community, with great businesses, in an in-town location.
It's going to be a wonderful day and a fun family
experience.” “The Museum School is pleased to be working with the City
of Avondale Estates and its many great sponsors to present
the community's first Kidsfest,” said Katherine Kelbaugh,
principal of The Museum School of Avondale Estates. “This
event is centered around children and families and promises
to bring fun to kids of all ages. Kidsfest is shaping up to
be one of the must-attend fall festivals in the Atlanta
area, and we hope that everyone will mark their calendars to
join us on October 1.” Headline entertainment for the extravaganza is nationally
known performing group
