PHOTOS & VIDEO of the massive bi-annual Rich Roberts Event which is currently taking place at the Rich Roberts residence, 120 Arbutus Drive. Thousands of Lakewood children are enjoying their Chol Hamo’ed with free snacks, pony rides, balloons, moonwalks, a petting zoo, a magic
show and much more, all free. Rich Roberts tells TLS (see video), that he has ordered approximately 8,000 nosh bags for the kids, 10,000 balloons, and invites all residents to come and enjoy!
The event will continue until 6:00 p.m.
I was so impressed by this massive carnival sponsered by Dr. Roberts, between the rides, shows, stories, animals, balloons & nosh you really made our children have a beautiful day spent in our own town- Lakewood. I was just a bit emabarrassed by the mess that was left all over, cleaniless is taught by the parents to thier children…there is no reason that all the wrappers could not be thrown out in the garbage! Hoping for a cleaner event next Chol Hamoed!
Yasher Koach, Mr. Roberts. I was there today with my children and grandchildren and I have no words to describe the beautiful Kiddush Hash-m and our family’s Hakoras Hatov. May Hash-m bentch you with Koach and Mazal so you may continue all your good work!
My apologies: Dr. Roberts (not Mr. Roberts)
Thank you Dr. Roberts !!! After making Yom Tov , this is the only place I can “afford” to take my kids to . It was really nice , the magician was great !
#1. Though I agree that wrappers should not be thrown on the floor, realize that there were definitely not enough garbage cans for the kids to put the wrappers. It is not like an amusement park that has bins all over.
Thank you so much Richie! Even if I could afford to take my kids elsewhere, given today’s economy, I took advantage of your carnival and gave money to my Shul instead.
I was also able to stay in Lakewood and learn with my kids, while giving my wife a well deserved day off.
I hope this zechus brings you and your family health and happiness.
Ah gutten moed!
In response to #5 – I was there – & there were not enough garbage bins. So what did I do? I had my kids give me their wrappers & bags, & I kept them in my pocketbook until I was able to find a garbage. There is no excuse for littering someone’s property- especially someone who is extending such a huge favor, as Dr. Roberts has done, by making such a beautiful carnival for our town, all at his own expense. Let’s hope by the next carnival people will have a little more consideration.
thank you for the amazing carnival. it was amazing and my chol hamoed couldn’t have been more fun.
Thanks for the jaw brakers my kids ate them the whole way to toronto
What a zechus this man has. I really envy him, and of course his wife too, as behind every great man there is a woman !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
