The Junior League of Jackson, Mississippi Department of Education, Mississippi Economic Council and the Partners of the Mississippi Children’s Museum along with Signature Sponsor Cellular South invite you to save the date for the Mississippi Children’s Educational Fair, “Come be a kid again” Preview Party, to be held April 1, 2008 at the Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum in Jackson, Miss.
The Wizard of Oz themed Mississippi Children’s Educational Fair (MCEF,) which will be held April 2-5, 2008 at the Mississippi Agriculture and Forestry Museum, is designed to help reduce the high school dropout rate in Mississippi by encouraging students to “Stay in School: Soar into the Future.” Featuring hands-on, interactive exhibits, the fair will be a fun, action-packed event. It is offered as a field trip to area schools to showcase the skills needed for exciting careers.
Come be among the first to experience the exciting exhibits planned for Mississippi’s students. The Preview Party will be held from 7-10 p.m. and will feature food, fun, and one-of-a-kind auction items from “Mississippi’s Heroes.” The public will also have an opportunity to tour the exhibits on Saturday, April 5, and planning is underway for a concert targeted to high school students. Watch for more details!
