IRVINE, CA (June 5, 2011) -

Miracles for Kids and National Charity League Newport Beach will be joining the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation in hosting its 18th Annual Western Roundup Picnic. The event, will be held at Hidden Valley in Irvine, serving 200+ critically ill children and their families, and several hundred donors and supporters of the three organizations. Attendance at the event is free.

Miracles for Kids joined the Pediatric Cancer Research Foundation four years ago to help offer a safe, fun environment for oncology children and their families to sit back, relax and kick of their heels for a rootin’ tootin’ good time at no extra cost to them during a very trying time in their lives. This event also creates an opportunity for Miracles for Kids’ grant recipients to enjoy a care free day of fun and soak up the many normal facets of childhood they don’t get to experience every day.

This year, families are able to participate in activities ranging from bouncy houses, pony rides, petting zoo, carnival rides and games, arts and crafts, face painting, photo booth, boat rides, raffles, lots of entertainment and much more. Attendees are also given the opportunity to participate in a dove release ceremony in memory of or in honor of a child.

For more information on this event or to volunteer, please contact Miracles for Kids at 714.730.3040 or email info@miraclesforkids.org.
