While some Kiwanians worked the Kiwanis table, others brought their children and grandchildren to take advantage of the events for the kids. Above is Wyatt Caniff and Nola Caniff, the son and daughter of Kiwanians Jessica and Jimmy Caniff at the petting zoo. Nola also enjoyed posing with the Disney characters.

Additional booths were set up 4-H and students from Madison Central High School, Madison Southern High School, and Model High School students who had a number of activities for the kids. And 4-H set up stands to sell some of their crafts.
