Magical Days are special events held at the Burrage Mansion several times throughout the year. These enchanting galas are designed to bring love, hope, excitement and joy back into the lives of children who are experiencing crisis. These are kids who are facing a serious illness or who have experienced the death of a parent or sibling—all heart breaking stories. While we can’t erase the pain or suffering that has impacted their lives, we can offer these special children and their families a day full of joy and magic and happiness. Families are nominated from within the community who have social, economic or health related crisis.

Karen Gould of Main Stream Events and PR Firm volunteered her time to be a part of this magical day. Main Stream Events and PR Firm believes in giving back to their community and Mansion Memories is one of the organizations that they volunteer several times a year for.

How Do We Select Our Families? Families are nominated from within the community who have social, economic or health related crisis. Please note: Due to limited space and our goal to serve as many families in crisis as possible, we cannot accommodate grandparents, aunt, uncles, cousins or friends at the Magical Day. Only Nominees selected to participate and their immediate family members may attend the Magical Day event.

How To Get Involved? We typically have over 150 volunteers to make these events a reality. From decorating to food preparation to the final clean up, our amazing volunteer workers are a crucial component to our success. Volunteer opportunities will be announced as needed for each event.

Everyone loves the 4th of July especially, Karen of Main Stream Events and PR Firm. Karen grew up with her dad's birthday on that day and she still finds the fireworks every year. As an adult, we love to celebrate with parties and picnics and find a way to see the fireworks. Grabbing a picnic basket is always a fun way to celebrate and this was an inspired photo shoot where we have planned many picnics for special couples. Another option is cheese, fruit, crackers and of course your favorite beverage.

Main Stream Events and PR Firm has more great ideas for small parties all the way up to large corporate picnics.
