On Saturday, July 13, 2024, Triumph Martial Arts in Pella turned into a buzzing hub of excitement, learning, and community spirit! Celebrating our 5th annual Kids Safety Day, the event was a hit with families and kids of all ages.
Our fun-filled day began with a free kids safety class hosted by Triumph Martial Arts in collaboration with the Pella Police Department. Kids eagerly soaked up important safety tips and basic self-defense techniques. It was amazing to see so many young, eager faces ready to learn how to stay safe and confident.
But the excitement didn’t stop there! The Pella Police Department brought along a patrol car, and kids were thrilled to meet the friendly officers and explore the vehicle. The Pella Fire Department showcased their impressive fire truck, complete with all the cool gear, while sharing vital fire safety tips. The Pella Community Ambulance service didn’t just bring one ambulance, but two, and introduced the crowd to Walter and Nitro, the lovable Crisis Canines, who brought smiles to everyone’s faces.
Of course, no event is complete without some tasty treats! Thanks to the generosity of Hy-Vee and Theisen’s, free snacks and drinks kept everyone refreshed. Culver’s delighted the kids with free custard tokens, making sure no one left without a sweet treat. The giant inflatable obstacle course, provided by Pella Sales and Rental, was the cherry on top, adding an extra layer of fun and excitement.
Master Instructor at Triumph Martial Arts, Matt White, shared his thoughts on the event: “Working with kids in our community is a fantastic opportunity. They are always excited to learn new skills. Events like this allow us to share what we do with the community and ensure our kids are confident and prepared.”
Chris White, Owner and Instructor at Triumph Martial Arts, echoed this sentiment, saying, “Our passion for serving the community drives everything we do at Triumph. Our Kids Safety Day shows what we can achieve together. We’re thankful for our partners, sponsors, and volunteers who make this fun, educational, and safe day possible.”
