Free day of family fun at Jones Chapel

Free carnival rides, high-tech games and food will be offered at Jones Chapel Third Annual Summer Fun Day.

The festivities will be July 6 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Jones Chapel United Methodist Church on Highway 29 betweeen Newnan and Palmetto.

Jim O'Connell, owner of Laser Sporting of Georgia and a member of Jones Chapel, donated use of the rides.

He explains, "We like to offer the community a free day of family fun, so we bring in our games."

Laser Sporting of Georgia brings RoboBoxers, MicroReality Stock Car Racing, Golf Driving Simulator, Laser Skeet Shooting, RoboSurfer, Moonwalk, Gladiator Joust, Orbitron, Mechanical Bull, and Pitch Burst to Jones Chapel.

Jones Chapel will serve free hot dogs, chips and soft drinks. The first three hours will also have Darlene Evans from J93.3 and the prize wheel.

"We desire not only to worship and glorify Jesus Christ, but also to be a light in the community. We hope that those who do not have a church home will feel welcome to join us for the fun day and other activities, like Vacation Bible School," said Pastor John Freeland.
