PTSA Student President Anthony Zheng (’24) agrees with Hargot and expressed just how fun it’ll be with a list of activities that will be available.
“I highly encourage people to attend because there’ll be a variety of vendors selling all sorts of goods and booths with activities that will be lots of fun. I’m sure that anyone who attends will enjoy themselves,” Zheng said. “There’ll be yard games, a gaming tower to match up against friends, a VR game station, foam area, local vendors and food.”
Admission fees are either a donation of non-perishable food or cash for Metropolitan Ministries, a nonprofit organization that provides care for at risk homeless families in the Tampa Bay area. Tickets can be purchased in either in advanced or at the gate; in advance they’re $15 for 25 tickets and at the gate is $20 for 25 tickets. Tickets will be used for all the games.
“[I anticipate] this event to be a market that one can enter and immediately feel welcome and [enjoy] the atmosphere of the Knights community spirit, having fun and playing games, eating food and indulging in treats,” Zheng said.
