It will be held on September 30, 2000-for the developmentally disabled children and adults of San Bernardino and Riverside Counties at 674 Brier Drive, San Bernardino, CA in the IRC parking lot. The IRC is a non-profit organization(501 C3 # 23-7121672) responsible for the oversight, care and management of approximately 15,000 developmentally disabled consumers in the two counties. The PSC is a small group of parents who work with the IRC on behalf of our own children and the remaining 15,000 children and adults serviced by the IRC. For the past three years the IRC along with the PSC have been instrumental in organizing and conducting a day of entertainment for the developmentally disabled and their families. We will have 50 to 70 vendors attending with booths to educate all on the resources available to the developmentally disabled and their loved ones in the two counties. At the same time we try to make this day fun and exciting for the developmentally disabled by providing a DJ, music and dance floor outside for consumer dancing, renowned entertainers—Billy Barty and Alex Valdez, bouncing booths, dunk tank, Chester Cheetah from Frito Lay, art displays and competition, clowns and face painting, a magician, a stilt walker, a juggling exhibition, animal petting zoo, horse drawn carriage rides, FREE"Kettle Kooked Popkorn", two food stands and lots of prizes for drawings.
