Busiest Week Ever...

It has been one of the busiest weeks for Desert Express Train. It started with a Ribbon Cutting on Wednesday, October 23, 2013 where we gave rides in honor of the event. Feeling grateful to have a group of wonderful people supporting us as we grow!

Friday, October 24th, we started out our first of three nights at the South Mountain Park. Haunted Hayrides happen every year at the end of October for the last 33 years! It's so popular that the visitors come early to get their tickets and get on the waiting list for the ride. The wait can be pretty long, but DJ Koko of Koko Enterprises, LLC makes it so much fun! Everyone gathers on the dance floor, from young to young at heart, and just dances! We loved being there all three nights!

Thanks to Everything Kids Fest and Shape Up U.S., we also had the privilege to be a part of Mayor's Play Day Event at Tumbleweed Park in Chandler. Engineer Nick had no break at all, from 9am-1pm. For the first time in the history of Desert Express Train, we ran out of gas during the event and had to refuel! That's A LOT of rides :)

This week is going to be just as busy! It will start with a Harvest Festival located on Coolidge Performing Arts Center parking lot on October 30th. November 1st and 3rd will be spent at WestWorld of Scottsdale with Everything Kids Fest and Shape Up U.S. during Super EXPO. November 2nd we'll be in Pioneer Park in Mesa giving rides during a car show. The Car show event will benefit City of Mesa in preserving the locomotive that is displayed at the park.

Couldn't be more thrilled for the opportunity to participate in such great events! Hope we'll see you there!
