Getting Ready For A Festively Full Weekend!
It’s officially the start of the holiday season, and Just Plain Silly Entertainment is helping folks get into the Christmas spirit!
JPS has a busy day in Pennsauken tomorrow! We’ll have Jingles the Elf and Mrs. Claus twisting balloons for guests at the Township’s annual Breakfast with Santa! We’re proud to be involved with this great event for the past several years; it’s great seeing how adorable the kids are; and we LOVE balloon twisting for them!
Then Mrs. Claus joins the man in the Big Red Suit for the Township’s 38th Holiday Parade! Just Plain Silly is the official sponsor of Santa and Mrs. Claus for this event and we couldn’t be more thrilled to be back year after year!
If you’re in the neighborhood, come out and join us! The Pennsauken Township Holiday Parade on Saturday, Dec. 1, starts at 1:00 p.m. on Westfield Ave., beginning at the Pennsauken Community Recreation Complex and runs all the way down to 44th St. MCs will provide commentary at both Cove and Browning roads.
Later that day, our Santa will lace up his ice skates for a private event at the Flyers Skate Zone in Pennsauken! We’re not Eric Lindros on the ice, but then again, who is?
On Sunday, Dec. 2, our Santa Claus will be stopping by Phoenix 15 Studios in Palmyra for their special holiday craft event! Come out and decorate your own Christmas stocking and two ornaments, one for home and one for Phoenix 15 Studios’ Christmas Tree! Santa will be there from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. for portraits and to take Christmas lists from the little ones!
Some come out and join us this weekend for a great start to the holidays! And don’t forget, our Santa and Mrs. Claus still have some slots available for appearances this December… but they’re filling up fast! E-mail justplainsillyballoon@gmail.com for more details!
Out And About On The First Day Of Fall
We’re sad to see another summer come and go, but we’re ready to take on a full weekend of fall fun!
Today around noon, we’ll be balloon twisting at the Toy and Collectible Street Fair in Merchantville! Held along West Park Ave. in Merchantville, the event – which runs from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. today – showcases a variety of new and vintage toys, games, and collectibles for sale. There will also be some great food and entertainment available… and I hear BATMAN WILL BE THERE! How cool is that!?! Thanks to Play With This Toys and Collectibles for inviting us!
Then on Sunday, we’re off to Pennsauken’s 26th annual Car, Bike, and Craft Show! For just $2, kids can get a wrist band for the event’s Kid Zone, and we’ll be offering balloon twisting and face painting there from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. In addition to all the cars and bikes that you’ll find at this year’s show, vendors and crafters will be in attendance, offering a wide variety of goods for sale. Both DJs and live bands will provide the soundtrack for the event, as attendees stroll up and down Maple Ave. And there will be football on the big screen! Hope to see you there!
Join Us At Today’s Butterfly Festival!
We’re getting ready for the Butterfly Festival at Red Bank Battlefield in National Park! We’ll be offering butterfly- and flower-themed balloons and face painting from noon to 4:00 p.m. Stop by and say “Hi!”
