The Walls Are Going Up! Let’s Raise The Roof!!!

September 1, 2016

buildoutBig News!!! Our contractor began putting up the dry wall, and the place is starting to take shape to be ready for a GRAND RE-OPENING this October. We thank you all for your patience during this extended period, and can’t wait to getting back to offering our tutoring, social, and other programming.

But why wait more than a month to see all your friends from GiGi’s? The second-annual “Get Down with Down Syndrome” Dance-a-Thon is only 10 days away. Register now, so you don’t miss out!!!!

The “Get Down with Down Syndrome” Dance-a-Thon is like no other fundraiser. There’s no dancing in front of, around or before or after anyone. Everyone is dancing together in a show of inclusion and fun. No one raises the roof like GiGI’s Playhouse. You know you want to be a part of it.

Not a dancer? Don’t worry, there’s plenty of other reasons to show up
  • Great Food
  • Great Raffle Prizes
    (including a Lagunitas Gift Basket, a helicopter ride around Chicago and a signed photo of Blackhawk’s coach Joel Quenneville)
  • Great Fun
The fun begins Saturday, Sept. 10, at 2 p.m. at Ravenswood United Church of Christ (2050 W. Pensacola).
Get ready to Get Down!!!
Register here!!!!
Proceeds will benefit GiGi’s Playhouse Chicago’s free programming, outreach and operations.
