First Steps Fall Festival 25th Birthday Party 2026

First Steps Fall Festival 25th Birthday Party is a First Steps PTO sponsored family event to raise scholarship funds for First Steps. The event is FREE - donations are appreciated.

The 2026 First Steps Fall Festival Birthday Party* is fun for the whole family. This year is extra special because we're celebrating 25 years of supporting young families.

Bring yourselves plus your bike, trike, scooter, wagon or stroller and join us for ALL the fun PLUS CAKE!

  • Saturday, October 3
  • 9:30am to 11:30am.
  • Westerman Preschool & Family Center parking lot, 2775 Boardwalk Dr

Kids (and adults) ride around cones, test their bike skills and, if it's warm enough, head through the bike wash. Everyone gets a ribbon and the first 75 kids get a beautiful t-shirt from Blossom! Don't have a trike or bike of your own? We have a few to share.

We don't just have bike and stroller fun though. We have lots of other activities too.

  • The AAFD is bringing a firetruck. Super cool!
  • AAPS has a SCHOOL BUS for kids to check out. 
  • Huron Valley Ambulance may bring an ambulance and kids can climb inside!
  • Blossom Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics shares FUN dental information.

  • Big Blue Swim School - check out their table
  • Lightbridge Academy - activities galore
  • Kidokenetics - try out their obstacle course, fun for all ages!

  • Dexter Co-op - more fun things to do
  • Baby Zone - Special area just for babies too.
  • Games, chalk drawing, face painting, ribbons for all the "racers", bike decorating, bike wash and lots more.
  • Food: coffee from M-36 Coffee Roasters (sponsored by Zarmareli Pediatrics), Cake (sponsored by) + bananas and bagels. Please bring your own water bottles.

All money raised goes into the scholarship fund so that ALL families can affordably participate in the First Steps Early Childhood program. Everything provided at the Fall Festival is donated including all our wonderful volunteers. Suggested Donation is $5/child. Additional donations happily accepted. Be sure to share with family and friends and have them donate too.

Thank You and see you there!

*We've changed the name from Trike-a-Thon to First Steps Fall Festival to better fit  ALL the activites. It is a bike, trike or stroller riding event AND so much more. Please attend whether you bring a trike/bike or not. See you soon!
