Children’s Village Is Safe Haven for <strong>St</strong>. <strong>John</strong> Youth<br />

By Jaime Elliott<br />

<strong>St</strong>. <strong>John</strong> <strong>Tradewinds</strong><br />

Frogs were flying through the sky and basketballs<br />

were whizzing into hoops near the Cruz Bay Creek on<br />

Monday night, June 29, as Children’s Festival Village<br />

got underway for the week.<br />

Sponsored by Rotary Club <strong>St</strong>. <strong>John</strong> and the <strong>St</strong>.<br />

<strong>John</strong> Community Foundation, the annual Children’s<br />

Village ran nightly from June 29 through July 4 from<br />

6 to 9 p.m. A team of volunteers ran a number of exciting<br />

games as eager children crowded around waiting<br />

for their turn.<br />

In addition to games of skill, the children also enjoyed<br />

face painting, strong man swinging and moonwalk<br />

jumping.<br />

A number of residents pitched in to ensure the success<br />

of the drug- and alochol-free Children’s Village<br />

for <strong>St</strong>. <strong>John</strong> Festival 2009.<br />
