November at CRI: Celebrating Community & Connection
A Spooktacular afternoon of family fun
Students and families from Gust Elementary enjoyed a fun-filled afternoon at their 12th Annual Fall Family Festival, planned and coordinated by Community Resources. Wearing their Halloween costumes, over 300 students and their families flooded the playground, where they had the chance to engage with a wide variety of activities and organizations.
Highlights included a cave spelunking simulator from CAVESIM, meeting the adorable DenverLoveGoats, and panning for gold. Wings Over the Rockies, the Denver Fire Department, and Science Matters were also there with engaging, interactive fun for students. The event was further enlivened by the Bryant Webster student Mariachi group, DJ Slickback, a balloon artist, face painters, a juggling clown, and various carnival games offering fun & educational experiences for all in attendance.
Judging by the hundreds of smiling faces and the fact that people didn’t want to leave, this event was, once again, a tremendous success.
