Mike and Annie (L-R) of Clearbrook, an Arlington Heights-based organization committed to creating opportunities for people of all ages with disabilities, work diligently on painting a carousel horse masterpiece for the Carousel for a Cause initiative at Santa’s Village Azoosment Park. This horse, along with others from five different area nonprofit organizations, will be on display at the park for the 2013 season and then given back to their respective organizations to use as an auction item or for display.
The Santa’s Village Azoosment Park Carousel for a Cause initiative was developed to commemorate the work of resident artist Dutch Akers of Crystal Lake who restored the Park’s carousel for the new season. As a part of the initiative, Santa’s Village Azoosment Park reached out to six different nonprofit organizations to design their own masterpiece for display at the Park. A Carousel for a Cause celebration will be held at the park on Thursday, June 13 at 11:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Andrea Schnorr - Join us this summer for Meadows Cruise Nights every Saturday night from 6 to 9 p.m. (until Labor Day).
