Parents and children of a variety of ages came to the Swansea Mall on April 24, 2016 for the first Walkathon Fundraiser for WiggleKids. Coach Kim Ferrara invited participants to walk for 90-minutes inside the Mall, stopping to answer trivia questions along the path and to interact at a series of fun stations to get popscicle sticks to count laps. Following award presentations to the walkers, participants were then invited to attend a Drums Alive class, a Jumpin' Beanz class, a Radical Reboundin' class and a Creative Relaxation yoga class, all free of charge. Participants could also enjoy a vendor fair inside the party room. Click here for a four-minute video of the event and here for photos of another event with WiggleKids at the Swansea Mall.
