2nd annual Carnival Event 3/14/09karengorskiolentangyschool

The Johnnycake Corners Elementary PTO puts so much work into making the carnival a success. Many volunteers work hard to make the day enjoyable and profitable. I attended the carnival last year it was a fun day for the kids and parents a wonderful event.

 A great fundraiser

 All the profits from the carnival help to provide additional resources for the school. Last years carnival was very successful kudos to those that organized the very first carnival since the school just opened in the fall 2007.

A great day for the kids to put their energies into playing games and eating their favorite foods. Not sure what will be availed this year you will just have to attend. Kids I am rooting for you, hope there is cotton candy and hot dogs again this year.karengorskireallivingheragentcarnival2

Silent auction and raffles

Many items have been donated. Last year there were beautiful baskets full of goodies to bid on. A boy’s bike and an American Girl Doll will be included in this year’s raffle. It’s always an honor to be asked to provide a donation to this special event.

Chrissa the 2009 American Girl Doll of the year

When called to make a donation to the carnival I was very happy to donate Chrissa. Every year the American Girl Doll company announces a brand new doll that is only available for one year. I love the message that Chrissa conveys, she is a girl thakarengorskireallivingheragentcarnivalt stands up for herself and others, she speaks out against bullying.

Please do attend

July 3, 2008 – Parade and Fireworks

Red, White and Boom is the best Columbus Ohio premiere celebration of the year; the festivities start with a huge parade and a fantastic fireworks display that begins at 10 p.m. The parade will start at 6:00 p.m. on Broad Street at COSI; most spectators stake out their special viewing spot hours before the fireworks are fired off. Take note the Red White and Boom launch site has been moved to a new location this year, which is at the rear of Vets Memorial, the spectacular fireworks display will be shot over the Scioto River.

Other Central Ohio 4th of July community events

If you missed the downtown parade you can catch the Upper Arlington Ohio Parade – Northwest Blvd, which begins at 9:00 a.m. on the 4th of July; this parade is noted for its wonderful floats. The Orange Celebration Parade in Lewis Center Ohio – Powell Rd and Old State Rd begins at 10 a.m. Andrea Cambern from WBNS-TV is the 2008 Grand Marshal. You will be able to enjoy listening to the Olentangy High School Marching Band. Many area communities celebrate the 4th with neighborhood parades and picnics. The Green-High Meadows, Harbor Pointe and Meadows at Cheshire communities plan special events for neighbors to enjoy a day of entertainment, games and good food.

Green-High Meadows Community – Powell Ohio

The festivities starts with a huge parade lead by Orange Township fire trucks; the community kids decorate their bikes, wagons and scooters. There are floats and the Orange Township trustees mingle with the crowd. A picnic follows after the parade there’s plenty of good food, games for the kids, and a raffle that offers terrific prizes. There is even a patriotic pet contest.

Harbor Pointe Community – Galena Ohio

Everyone loves a parade especially the neighborhood kids who ride their decorated bikes in a huge group with the music of the Real Living Calliope following behind. After the parade there is a neighborhood gathering, everyone brings a dish to share so there is plenty of good food to enjoy. The kids will have a blast tumbling in the Super Games inflatables, the Taylor Station Band will provide soft rock music.

Meadows at Cheshire Community – Galena Ohio

A group of residents that play marching band instruments gather together a few weeks before the holiday to practice, they play patriotic tunes as they march thru the neighborhood on the 4th of July.

Happy 4th of July 2008

A great day for family and friends to gather together to enjoy parades, picnics and fireworks. 4th of July is more than a day of fun festivities; it’s a day to commemorate the founding fathers of our country for their pursuit of liberty and justice for all. Many have made sacrifices so that we are able to enjoy our freedoms.

Galena was established in 1809 under the name of Zoar. The creeks created a water power source for a sawmill. When the residents applied for a Post Office in 1834 the name of Zoar was disqualified due to the existence of another community with that name. There is no history as to how the town
