By Carrie Hotte November 4, 2021

Join Macaroni Kid in the Great Macaroni Kid Snowball Fight of 2021. Our community could use a little excitement, and there is no better way than a little friendly snowball fight amongst friends! Macaroni Kid Chicopee-Holyoke is "aiming" to surprise 150 families this winter, with the ultimate snowball fight. Well, not a literal snowball fight... it's more that we will be spreading smiles by delivering at least 150 Snowball gift bags in December-January. How? We will gather all the swag to fill the bags, arrange for delivery and document the adventure on social media! We will also, provide info for the recipients to keep the balls rolling! 

We need your help to pull this off!

Macaroni Kid Chicopee-Holyoke is seeking sponsors for the Great Macaroni Kid Snowball fight of 2021.  All of our sponsor's logos will appear on the flyer that will accompany each basket and be delivered throughout the area. Your name and logo will also be included on all marketing materials used to promote this activity, including an article detailing this project that will be sent out in our weekly newsletters to approximately 3100 families in the Chicopee, Holyoke and Ludlow areas, so that they can download the flyers and create their own Snowball Fight baskets.
