Ashland Train Day’s Kid Zone 2024 is set to be bigger and better than ever! And who's leading the charge? None other than Ashland’s New Community Church.
In an exclusive interview with Brandon Baldwin, he shared enthusiasm for the event, "The train rides and bounce houses are a blast, but I think the kids’ favorite parts are the face painting and the free prize wheel. From pencils to toys to lollipops, we love seeing the kids get so excited about whatever they win."
But it's not just about the activities; it's about the memories. Brandon reminisces, "Beyond all the smiling faces, it's seeing how much our volunteers get out of the day. Sure, we’re all tired by the end of the day, but year after year, so many leave saying how much they love this community."
The heart behind New Community Church's involvement is clear: to foster a sense of belonging and joy within the community. Brandon expresses, "Our church wants the kid zone to be a free experience that is safe and fun for kids and families. It’s important for kids to feel that their community is safe and that their community is for them. That is our desire as a church, too - to send a message that we are for you and we are for this community."
So, what's the ultimate goal for attendees of the Kid Zone this Ashland Train Day? According to Brandon, it's simple: "Great memories and a full heart."
With the New Community Church team at the helm, Ashland Train Day's Kid Zone promises a day filled with laughter, adventure, and plenty of family fun. So mark your calendars for April 27th, and make sure to stop by the Kid Zone sponsored by New Community Church. It's an event you won't want to miss!
