The event, which will take place at Lion’s Town & Country Park, will feature special guest speakers and a free raffle (grade school–college students only) for what the Parks Department teases as an “Apple-MAZING” gift – a computer generously donated by the United Way of Fresno & Madera Counties. Based on the New York Times bestseller, WONDER tells the incredibly inspiring and heartwarming story of August Pullman, a boy with facial differences who enters fifth grade, attending a mainstream elementary school for the first time.
Location:
Lion’s Town & Country Park (Amphitheater) • 2300 Howard Rd, Madera, CA 93637
