2008 brought another successful picnic for the
Professional Firefighters of Palm Beach County. There
was definitely no shortage of fun here. Cristabelle
was on hand to provide awesome face painting and
crazy balloon art. As if that wasn't enough, they
also brought in a super slide, rock wall, and bounce
house. As always the food was great and everyone
welcomed us with big smiles and "mucho" appreciation
for our work.
In the previous years, kids and parents would have to wait in the heat on long face painting lines. We realized that this was not only inconvenient, but they were missing out on the opportunity to have fun. We remedied this with our version of the "Fast Pass." As kids arrived they were given a number on their hand to mark their place in line. We also would give them an estimated time to check back to see if their turn was up. Over 100 numbers were given out. Whew! Could you imagine having to be number 73 or 87? You have missed the whole picnic waiting on line. Parents and kids alike loved it and could not thank us enough.
