Last year, inspired by a small town’s fundraising efforts in Minnesota, the Town of Niverville purchased equipment for its block party wagon. The wagon, which operated throughout the summer and fall last year and has been used for multiplex fundraisers, is back again complete with eight tables, 37 chairs, a barbecue with grills and griddles, barbecue utensils, and lawn games, all housed in a 16-foot trailer. The lawn games include a bean bag toss, bocce ball, croquet, horseshoes, ladder golf, and lawn darts.

Residents of Niverville can use the wagon for free. All that’s required is a damage deposit. The wagon is a great tool for hosting block parties, fundraisers, sporting tournaments, and everything in between. It can be reserved for all weekends and weekdays from May to October, with one rental per weekend.
