Due to the high wind warning, the company providing the foam machine and bounce castle has notified us that the equipment cannot be safely used in these conditions. Unfortunately, for the safety of our students and families, we must cancel the Sunnyside Foam Fest 5K scheduled for Friday, May 15 at 6:00 p.m.

We are very disappointed, but safety must come first. The good news is we are already planning for an even bigger and better Foam Fest next year!

Thank you for your understanding.
