Children's Village receives $100K gift from Silverwood
One provides fun and entertainment, the other provides safety and care. Together, Silverwood Theme Park and Children's Village make quite the kid-focused team. For at least 11 years, Silverwood has presented Children's Village with gifts of funds donated by passengers aboard the park's historical Steam Train No. 7, mostly when they are being shaken down during a theatrical train robber show. From the train alone, just more than $25,000 was raised this season. Silverwood owners Gary and Jeanne Norton added another $75,000 to give Children's Village a nice round gift of $100,000.
