Today we have received, all the way from California, a large shipment of animal puppets from Folkmanis. A company based in California that produces high end puppets. Volunteers will now be given the opportunity to dress completely in black and make one of these creatures come to life on June 4th, 2009, 4:00am, at the Air Canada Hangar for the children who will be visiting Disney.
We are in talks with other large organizations about the possibility of practicing at their location. (I can't really go into detail about this one yet.) We are making arrangements to visit Parklane School as well as local hospital with these puppets. All the children seem to levitate to these furry creatures. What a magical feeling.
A very special thank you to all our wonderful friends at Folkmanis in California. They were very generous.
Special thanks to Elaine who was a pleasure to work with and shares a passion to help children no matter where in the world they may live. This will be our 20th Anniversary and we are sure to be a hit with the puppets. Visit them at their website, you will be impressed with the quality and cuteness of these high end puppets.
If you have any questions regarding volunteering with a puppet, please contact Keith Petty at keithp000@sympatico.ca
