The free event is designed to honor and provide a fun day for special needs children and their families. All admission, the fair, and the food are a gift of the Scottsdale Sunrise Rotary Club.
PARKING: We ask that you drop everyone at the park with the items you need for the day. Drive to St Barnabas of the Desert, 6715 N Mockingbird Ln, Paradise Valley, AZ 85253.
Park in the North Lot. We will have two 15 passenger vans that will return you to the park. It is less than a one mile trip. We are unable to transport car seats, wheel chairs, etc. so please drop your passengers at the park before you go to Saint Barnabas. It is necessary that we do as much off-site parking as possible as the retailers across the street will not allow parking during their business hours.
The event provides games with prizes, hot dogs, chips, ice cream, pop corn, and beverages for all.
In addition, these organizations help make the event a success:
- Raising Special Kids
- McCormick Stillman Railroad Park
- Mechanical Society
- Penske Trucks
- A1 Vans
- Liberty Wildlife
- The Herpetological Society
- Boy Scouts
- Girl Scouts
- Scottsdale Police K-9 Unit

- Visits to the Mechanical Society Train Museum and Live Steamers
- Bouncy Things, Petting Zoo, Pony Rides
Booths with games and face painting which adds to the fun and enjoyment by all.
Raising Special Kids assisted the Scottsdale Sunrise Rotary Club in getting the news out to all families in Arizona on the date of the event.
