University Park Pre-School Association (UPPA) hosted yet another successful UP All Night at UP Elementary. Thank you to Robert Elliott Custom Homes, our Lead Sponsor of UP All Night 2018!

"UP All Night is our organization's biggest fundraiser for UP Elementary and we are so happy it has been such a huge success over the last few years", said Emily Boles, UPPA President. This year’s event sold out in record time and hosted over 325 families!

This past Saturday, April 28th, UP Dads and Children gathered up their camping gear and pitched their tents under the stars for the 5thAnnual UP All Night Campout at UP Elementary. During the daytime hours, campers enjoyed fun activities next door at Northway Christian Church. Favorites included Coconut Climb, Big Baller Inflatable, Quad Bungee Jump, Laser Tag, Bumper Soccer, Dunk Tank, Perot TECH Truck, Kona Ice, Kid Art “Arts & Crafts” Corner, Color Hair Spray Station, Camp Memories Photo Booth, Golf Simulator, Dodgeball, Glow In The Dark Face Painting, Board Breaking and much more! 

Two weeks prior to UP All Night, UP students enjoyed kids lunches provided by Mimi’s Pizza and Gigi’s Cupcakes with water provided by Elliott & Elliott, Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate.

At UP All Night, attendees enjoyed a delicious dinner sponsored by Burger House and Slim Chickens, mini cupcakes from Gigi’s Cupcakes, sweet treats provided by Daisy Cakes and more!

Septien Entertainment Group entertained the crowd during dinner hours and the kids had a blast jamming to the DJ and getting their “glow on” at the infamous “glow-in-the-dark dance party.” Campers watched a slide show of the day’s events and watched a short movie before lights out. Everyone loved the beautiful weather and had a fun-filled day full of festivities before camping out under the stars. 

Sunday morning, campers were treated to a delicious breakfast of yummy donuts and breakfast tacos provided by Cinco Taco before they packed up and headed home.

Thank you to the UP All Night 2018 Event Chairs Ashley Blurton, Tiffany Brooks, Jamie Buis, Whitney Zapffe and UPPA President Emily Boles for planning a fantastic event! We are so grateful to our elects, event sponsors, underwriters, committee members, volunteers, Mr. Gonzalez, Principal Judd and many more who helped make this event possible.
