Building a Great Community!
Build
a playhouse, a dollhouse, or a doghouse for a great cause. The
Fremont/Newark YMCA is again seeking builders and sponsors for the YMCA
Kid City at the Fremont Festival of the Arts.
These 8’ X 8’ playhouses will be auctioned and raffled off to benefit kids and families attending programs of the Fremont/Newark YMCA. You can also scale down the project and make a dollhouse or even a doghouse.
Kid City is an interactive, kid friendly place at the Festival of the Arts where parents and children can enjoy a family atmosphere. We want to set the “Kid City” tone by placing playhouses throughout Kid City and along the street at the festival.
Materials costs vary between $1800-$3000, or lower if you choose to make a doll or dog house. See the YMCA flier
