Dallas CASA’s annual Parade of Playhouses will return to NorthPark Center this summer July 15 – 31. The beloved event raises critical funds and awareness for Dallas CASA and the child victims of abuse or neglect served by the agency. NorthPark Center has hosted the event every year since 1996.
Crest Cadillac / INFINITI / Volvo will be presenting sponsor for the event, which features custom-designed and built playhouses available to win by raffle. All proceeds from raffle ticket sales benefit children living in the protective care of the state. KDC will be the grand marshal for the event.
Local designers, organizations, and builders donate the unique playhouses, which will be displayed in the hallways of NorthPark. Dallas CASA has welcomed 21 builders and architects, creating a dozen playhouses for the event.
Three longtime and much-loved builders — LRO Residential, Crest Cadillac / INFINITI / Volvo, and Amy Butscher with Butscher Construction — are some of the returning builders. Past playhouse designs have included a rocket ship, an elephant, a castle, a working car wash, and a garage. More details about the 2022 collection of houses will be available in the coming weeks.
Dallas CASA volunteers will be on hand at NorthPark Center to sell tickets and answer questions about how to support children who have been abused or neglected and are living in foster care.
Daltxrealestate.com is a media sponsor of the event and will feature exclusive interviews and previews of several Parade of Playhouses designs before the annual fundraiser. Stay tuned!
