Nothing says U.S.A. like sumo wrestling.
We know we mentioned this earlier, but now we have a photo to go with the story, so we’re saying it again: in addition to the rocking chair races, Trophy Cupcake’s Cakewalk, and lots of other carnival games, Fuerte Fitness will be sponsoring sumo wrestling at Gas Works Park on July 4th, noon to 4 pm. See our full Fourth of July rundown for all the details.
I do not understand why you are having a wrestling demo on the 4th of jJuly.
It feels inappropriate.
The other events are a wonderful community reaching out, but this is too wierd.
Attention all senses of humor! Look closely at the costumes and the intention!
Fuerte Fitness is one of our great Wallingford businesses that will actually get involved with the community, and we say Right On! this is Inflatable Sumo Wrestling, a fun and silly workout. and Trophy Cupcakes’ Cupcake Walk will be fun, and yummy as well.
Near both of those is the Wallingford Chamber/Not A Number Kids Club big booth featuring a fundraiser that is NOT the Rocking Chair Races. ( that fell through a few days ago when we discovered that all of the necessary equipment was not ready ) BUT fear not; the same great Raffle will occur, and now two games: Tater Tot Toss and “Are You Smarter Than a Kid?”, modeled on the game show “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader?”
Join our panel of expert kids, ages 10-16, as they take on adults as well as other kids, with fun trivia and history questions. Buy a raffle ticket or several! Prizes are amazing, courtesy of a bunch of fantastic Wallingford businesses, including: $50 gift card for Joule, toys from Izilla Toys, pairs of tickets to a Sounders game from Seattle Bank/Wallingford, $100 (!) gift card from Cartridge World, $100 (!!) gift card from 4 Your Eyes Only , more yumminess via Chutney’s, Selena’s Guadalajara, Fainting Goat Gelato (who will be featured in the Times on Wed.!), $20 gift card from Amita and one for $50 from Yazdi at Wallingford Center, fun gifts from Not A Number…. and much more! Games and Senior Center Raffle start sometime after the gates open at noon, and continue till at least 7 pm.
oops, not Anonymous; proud to be part of the Chamber and such a supportive business community!
