At the Special Needs Barnyard Bash, there will be a petting zoo, haircuts, a special needs dance team performance, vacation and financial planning services, medical equipment resources, a movie screening, police car and fire truck to play in, 3D interactive games, karaoke and more. Montgomery said for the first year, the money raised from the event will support the free event on Sunday, but in the future, he and Bieda hope to raise more money from proceeds and sponsorships to donate to local charities for people with special needs. And with 40 acres of land, there is plenty of room to grow. Admission and parking are free, and each activity, food and drink will have its own cost. The Barnyard Bash will be free for all special needs families and caregivers. “It’s a fun event for a great cause,” Montgomery said. JUNE/JULY 2018 : EXTOL 37
