The East Ridge Needy Child Fund is planning a unique event this fall at the amphitheater at Camp Jordan Park.

PioneerFest – a community event bringing area residents, civic groups, schools, religious congregations and businesses together for entertainment, food and fun – is scheduled for October 13 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Organizers of the event are actively seeking “sponsors” to set up booths inside the area to promote their organizations. As a sponsor you will be provided with a space (10X10 or 10X20 depending upon sponsorship level) and have your business or organization listed on flyers, Facebook promotions and sponsor boards at the event. The cost of sponsorship levels range from $50 to $500. As the East Ridge Needy Child Fund is a 501(c)(3) organization, contributions are tax deductible.

Setup for the event will be from 8 to 9:45 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 13.

The mission of the East Ridge Needy Child Fund is to ensure every child in East Ridge is not forgotten at Christmastime. The organization’s goal is to provide a warm winter coat, shoes, toys and a family food basket for the neediest youngsters in the community. The organization also provides support to school children throughout the year providing some school supplies and clothing.
