"Kids Day" Event

"Kids Day" Free Event in May 2007 was a great success for Health, Safety and Environment in it's 2nd Year held at The Peterborough Sport and Wellness Centre.The participants doubled to 3,000 in 2007. The purpose of "Kids Day" is to teach kids the importance of being active, feeling safe in our community and exploring our natural environment. It is a great hands-on event with 32 interactive activities for kids in educational, fun workshops that raise awareness about health, safety and the environment. "Kids Day" was once again a rewarding and successful endeavour that benefits families with children and the entire Peterborough Community.

Last year, "Kids Day" raised $2,717.00 for "Camp Kawartha" through both a jump-start and donation boxes. TD Canada Trust sponsored and partnered with "Kids Day" with proceeds to go to "Camp Kawartha", a non-profit organization dedicated to outdoor educational adventure programs and camp life. Kids were chosen from Kawartha Haliburton Children's Aid Society and Big Brothers and Big Sisters to go to "Camp Kawartha" Summer/Nature Camp in August 2007 on Clear Lake in the Kawarthas.

Multimediate developed, implemented and sponsored the event, coordinating sponsorships/ advertising/ promotions/ website.
