Kids vs. firefighters Nerf gun battle fundraiser in Surrey Aug. 29<\/p>\n
Published 11:44 am Thursday, August 13, 2026<\/p>\n
A new fundraiser for Surrey Fire Fighters Charitable Society will see kids in Nerf-gun battles with local firefighters.<\/p>\n
Time-slot tickets are sold for the Aug. 29 event, at Clayton Hills Golf Course and The Backyard Golf facilities on Highway 10.<\/p>\n
The Kids VS Firefighters Event (on eventbrite.com<\/a>) is organized by Krysten Guilbault and her husband, who operate Phantom Dart Crew Events<\/a>, a new mobile business. <\/p>\n \u201cWe came up with the idea to give back to the community with an end-of-summer event, something new and different,\u201d Guilbault said. \u201cWe\u2019re hoping to raise at least $5,000 if we can.\u2026 Our spots are starting to fill up.\u201d<\/p>\n Kids will team up and take on \u201clocal firefighter heroes in a high-energy foam dart battle,\u201d the website says. \u201cThis is pure backyard-style action with a twist: real firefighters, big smiles and lots of laughter.\u201d<\/p>\n Tickets are $25 plus fees, or $5 for spectators, in hour-long time slots.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have had some amazing businesses in the local community come together to provide us with additional entertainment, including a bouncy castle and face painting,\u201d Guilbault added. \u201cWe are working to get a raffle approved and a 50\/50 as well. We will also have food and other goodies on site.\u201d<\/p>\n All blasters and foam darts will be provided, so kids just need to show up with comfortable, weather-appropriate clothes and running shoes, ready to play.<\/p>\n \u201cTo follow Hasbro\u2019s Nerf Blaster age safety guidelines, we recommend that children be at least 8 years old to participate in the foam dart battles,\u201d the event website says. \u201cThat said, some children under 8 who are already experienced with Nerf toys may be developmentally ready. Parent discretion is advised.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kids vs. firefighters Nerf gun battle fundraiser in Surrey Aug. 29 Published 11:44 am Thursday, August 13, 2026…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":856997,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194299],"tags":[49,48,87674],"class_list":["post-856996","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-surrey","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-surrey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/856996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=856996"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/856996\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/856997"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=856996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=856996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=856996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
