Fun Day
Posted 30th July 2009 by paul rowePFA Birmingham held a Fun Day on Saturday 25th July. This was open to all users of the centre to come and have some fun.
We had face painting, raffle, with some fantastic prizes, as well as a duck race in the stream that runs by EST Birmingham. 50 little yellow ducks were released into the stream and the race was on. THe winning owner of the duck received tickets to a local tourist attraction.
The event raised much needed funds for the centre and as you can see from the photos the children (and adults) had a great time.
