LeBounce in Cape Girardeau hosts event for children with special needs

LeBounce Inflatable Play Centre will host Boomerang at LeBounce: Giving back bounce by bounce on Tuesday, Aug. 30, from 5 to 7 p.m. The event focuses on children with special needs and their families, with all proceeds benefiting Melaina's Magical Playland.

"LeBounce wanted to create an event dedicated to children who have special needs, but also to go beyond a night of fun to something with a lasting impact on the community," says Maddy Bruegging, General Manger at LeBounce in Cape Girardeau. "Boomerang at LeBounce: Giving back bounce by bounce will do that by donating proceeds from the event to Melaina's Magical Playland."

Melaina's Magical Playland is an all-inclusive and fully-accessible playland under development in Cape Girardeau County. "This area is home to many children and adults with disabilities, and currently there is no public playland that accommodates these special needs within nearly 100 miles," says Andrea Cunningham, playland organizer and mom to the playland's namesake. "The goal of Melaina's Magical Playland is a place where people of all abilities can play and interact together side by side. Raising awareness and funding with events such as Boomerang at LeBounce is an incredible boost to our cause, and it will be a great night for families of children with special needs as well."
