Tons of Fun - Saturday at Tanglewood Mall!

Roanoke County Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism along with Roanoke County Department of Economic Development and Tanglewood Mall are gearing up for another fantastic day of free fun for children on Saturday, February 5, 2011, from 10 AM to 4 PM at Tanglewood Mall in Roanoke, Virginia.

This 12th annual event will of course have all your old favorites such as balloon sculptures, a caricature artist, face painting, clowns, inflatable fun, rides and games, and of course who can forget the lovable costume characters or the creative craft activities. In addition to your favorites, Tons of Fun also has new and exciting entertainment in store!

Many local community organizations including the Roanoke Symphony, Council of Community Services, Girl Scouts of America, Goodwill Industries of the Valley, Huntington Learning Center, Child Care Link, and many others are coming together to participate in this highly anticipated yearly event. We look forward to another huge success.

And remember, thanks to the sponsorship of Roanoke County Department of Economic Development and Tanglewood Mall, all activities at Tons of Fun are free again this year!
