Children and their families had a ‘magical’ time celebrating summer. NYC Parks and the Westchester Square-Zerega Improvement Organization presented an afternoon of summertime delights on Saturday, July 14 at Pelham Bay Park’s Playground for All Children. The family-friendly extravaganza featured a spellbinding Simply Magic show, puppets by Uncle Morty’s Clubhouse, games, arts and crafts and Volunteers for Wildlife raptor ambassadors’ highly informative program.
Children participated in a magic trick during the Simply Magic show.
