Wood County Board of Developmental Disabilities (WCBDD) will be hosting a “Community Carnival and Hog Roast” on Friday, Aug. 23, from 4-7 p.m. at Wood Lane School, located at 1921 E. Gypsy Lane Road in Bowling Green. This event is sponsored by Kiwanis AKtion Club – a community service club for adults living with disabilities – and is open to everyone in the Wood County area.
Participating provider agencies will offer carnival games, a bounce house, photobooth, face painting, balloon animals and more all free of cost for attendees. There will also be a Bake Walk benefiting Wood County’s Habitat for Humanity. Sworden’s Smoke meal tickets can be purchased for $10 pre-sale or at the event and include a pulled pork sandwich, baked beans, potato salad, and a beverage.
This event is designed to bring the Wood County community together for an evening of inclusion, fun, and food, while also providing individuals served and families with helpful information on providers and services available in the area.
“We work hard every year to put on a great event, but we’re very excited for this year because it’s our first time having a hog roast” said Kristen Fisher, President of AKtion Club. “All the money we raise will be donated to Habitats for Humanity of Wood County. We hope to see everyone there!”
