Lil’ Sidekick – Silver Sponsor

Do you have a little one who is constantly “dropping” or throwing his toys, drink, silverware, or anything from his high chair, stroller, or exer-saucer? If you do, you must try out  Lil’ Sidekick—an absolutely genius mommy invention created by Polk City mama Amy Vohs. The Lil’ Sidekick is a safe, simple solution that prevents a child from dropping or throwing items out of reach. The Lil’ Sidekick is different than anything I have seen out there before and truly makes your life as a parent easier!

The versatile design allows for attaching the Lil’ Sidekick to not only sippy cups, but to something as small as a crayon or silverware! This product is easy to clean, and it’s super cute and colorful as well. Your kiddos will love it! Connect with Lil’ Sidekick on Facebook and Twitter, and check out their website. We are grateful to lil’ Sidekick for their sponsorship of this event!

Food Sponsors:

Reising Sun Cafe & Three Chicks Bakery

If you have been to the Polk City town square you have probably seen these two fabulous businesses! Reising Sun Cafe and Three Chicks Bakery are both owned and operated by amazing women. Both places represent this small town in a wonderful way: friendly people and delicious food! Polk City is lucky to have them!

Fareway Food Stores

When Fareway opened up in Polk City last year it made a lot of people happy. There is so much convenience with having a grocery store right in town. Fareway Stores, Inc. is a growing Midwest grocery company with more than 100 stores. They hold family values in the highest regard, demonstrating integrity, fairness, and honesty in their relationships with customers, employees, vendors, and suppliers.

Entertainment Sponsors:

Iowa League of Heroes & Polk City Fire Dept and Police Station

The Iowa League of Heroes strives for an authentic look. Setting the standard in character appearances, each member has invested hundreds if not thousands of dollars in design, fabrication, location, and purchase of parts for our suits. We want to make sure they don’t see a guy/girl in a costume, but a hero in a suit. Most importantly, we want to maintain high standards to honor the creators of these heroes, leaving no doubt that we hold each one in the highest respect. Check them out for your next event here. 

A big thanks goes out to our local heroes who keep our cities safe. We loved meeting Polk City’s finest at this event as well as walk through and check out the amazing vehicles they use.

 Children & Families of Iowa:
