Fun Fair
Summer might feel very far away right now but the Sunnybrae Parent Council has already started preparations for our biggest fundraiser of the year: the 2025 Fun Fair! Our biggest expenses — and biggest attractions — are the inflatables we rent for the kids to enjoy. This year we are inviting sponsorships for the inflatables, and other Fun Fair attractions too. If you or your business/organization would like to be a Fun Fair sponsor, please get in touch with council chair Jenn Tough at [email protected] for more information!
