Hilltop Jamboree is a carnival where local businesses and student organizations
from both Cornell and Ithaca College set up and host booths with exciting activities
such as face-painting and arts and crafts. The 1st Annual Hilltop Jamboree was
held on April 29, 2006 and raised $1250 for the following child welfare agencies
in Tompkins County:
- Tompkins Community Action
A long-standing local effort to improve the lives of low-income children,
families, and individuals in Tompkins County
- Day Care and Child Development
Council of Tompkins County
A local umbrella resource group that promotes the healthy development of children
& families in Tompkins County
- Ithaca's Saturday Science and Math Academy
A grassroots neighborhood initiative that runs science and math learning initiatives
for minority students on Saturday Mornings
In addition to raising money the carnival is meant to build a bridge between
Cornell, Ithaca College, and the Ithaca community. The 2nd Annual Hilltop Jamboree
stands to be an even larger success than last year. We are expecting over 500
attendees and have expanded the number of booth activities, dance and music
performances, and carnival games.
We would like to extend a very special Thank You to our sponsors, booth participants,
and performers:
