Miles Perret Cancer Services invites us all to Play With a Purpose at the 16th annual Games of Acadiana on Saturday, August 20th from 10am-4pm at the Cajundome Convention Center.

This unique day of fun holds over 60 games and activities for the entire family to enjoy.

Opening ceremonies will feature an inspiring "Survivor Walk", a way to honor those living with cancer. Game Day then begins and participants can enjoy some old favorites like Hula-Hoops, Home Run Derby, Monster Spider Jump, Quarterback Pass, and Candy Land.

There are several new games this year too, including Snow Mountain, Spider Climb, Knocker Balls, and a Zipline!

Games of Acadiana is still the signature fundraiser for Miles Perret Cancer Services. Businesses and individuals throughout Acadiana come together to support MPCS' mission of helping families fight, survive, and live with cancer.

Since opening its doors in 2002, MPCS has served over 13,000 families in Acadiana.
