On Wednesday, Aug. 13, adults can feel like kids again when they enjoy an Adult Pirate Pak at one of Richmond’s three White Spot locations.
The seventh annual fundraiser gives $2 from the sale of every Pirate Pak to Zajac Ranch for Children, a B.C. charity that provides kids and young adults with life-threatening illnesses and chronic disabilities a memorable summer camp experience.
Last year, a total of 1,617 Pirate Paks were sold on Pirate Pak Day in Richmond, raising $3,234 for the charity — an annual increase of more than 30 per cent.
Pirate Pak Day has already raised a total of $268,386 and sent more than 100 children to camp. White Spot Week at Zajac Ranch runs from Aug. 18 to 22 and includes activities ranging from horseback riding and kayaking.
“Our long-standing partnership with White Spot provides a direct benefit to kids in need,” said Mel Zajac, founder of Zajac Ranch for Children.
“It’s so rewarding to see their faces light up when they try new camp activities, which are specially tailored to kids with special needs.”
