Pirates Kids Day: Part 2

Hi, friends! Veronica from Team Smiley here. We are all big Bucco fans on Team Smiley, so we were super excited to be invited back for another Pittsburgh Pirate Kids Day on Federal Street! We packed the cookie cruiser with 2,300 Smiley Cookies and headed to PNC Park this past Sunday morning for the pregame extravaganza.

As we were setting up our very special Pirate Smiley Cookies (decorated with black and gold icing, and signature eye patch) Pittsburgh’s Country Radio Station, Y108, stopped by to give us a special shout on the radio! Team member Natalie prepared her voice for her radio debut and told listeners to visit our Eat’n Park booth outside PNC. Thanks Y108!


Everyone was excited to see us at another Kids Day event for our iconic cookie decorating for kiddos of all ages. Bucco fans (and even some National fans too!) made a lot of baseball themed creations that looked great!

And of course the Team couldn’t forget their pal, Smiley! Fans loved photo opportunities with Smiley, after all he does have a great smile! He also made some special friends that traveled to Pittsburgh all the way from Australia! While there are no Smiley Cookies down under, his new friends got their sweet tooth fix back at our booth.



Another great Kids Day is in the books, followed by a great win from the Pirates! Summer is winding down but keep an eye out for Smiley and the Team at more events and maybe another Pirate Kids Day appearance!  Click here to find out where we will be next!

Peace, Love, and Smiles!

WKDD Kidz Day

Hi, Cookie Lovers! It’s Kendall from Team Smiley! This past Saturday, the Team headed to Green, Ohio for WKDD Kidz Day.  The event was hosted by the 98.1 WKDD staff and volunteers for children of all ages! There were many different booths full of games,and activities including a petting zoo, a stage for entertainment, inflatable obstacle courses and our favorite, the Eat n’ Park Team Smiley booth!


We had a blast cookie decorating with Smiley fans from all over including two cookie-lovers from out of town, who make it a priority to come visit Smiley every time they are in the area. That is some awesome cookie-dedication! The Team also saw some very artistic cookie creators and loved seeing all the smiling faces!


Also during the event, there was an amazing robot dance show where the performers moved and grooved to pop hits such as Uptown Funk! We say their best dance move was definitely the robot. Along with the dancing ‘bots, there was an animal show filled with reptiles and furry friends! There was not a dull moment all day!

Overall, the Team had a Blast at WKDD Kidz Day! Click here to see which fun-filled event Smiley and the Team with be at next!

Team Smiley Visits Saint Sebastian’s Parish Festival

Hi there, friends! Elizabeth, from Team Smiley, here to tell you all about the amazing time we had at Saint Sebastian’s Parish Festival in Ross Township. The weekend marked the beginning of many church festival appearances for the team, and you know what that means – rides, games, funnel cakes, and Smiley Cookies!


It was Team Smiley’s first time attending this festival, and we were happy to be there! This fun-filled community event brought together Smiley Cookie lovers of all ages during the beautiful summer evening. The team encouraged both young and old attendees to try their hand at decorating their very own cookies, and we saw creativity in full force throughout the event!


It was a very busy night for Smiley, too! In addition to meeting new friends, Smiley took selfies in the photo booth, hung out with Steely McBeam, and danced the night away with his fans. 


Stay updated on all Team Smiley events by following us (@enpteamsmiley) on Twitter and Instagram!

Smile on!

Kids Day with the Pittsburgh Pirates

Hello, cookie lovers! It’s Emily from Team Smiley! This past weekend, Team Smiley had an awesome time celebrating the 4th of July! Before the Pirates game on Sunday, the team hung out on Federal Street for Kids Day. This pre-game event was full of fun and games for families who wanted to enjoy the PNC Park atmosphere before heading into the stadium. Kids got the chance to race through an obstacle course, test their pitch speed, and meet Smiley!


It was a great day to enjoy a baseball game and a Smiley Cookie! Smiley loved seeing so many Bucco fans and made them laugh with his funny dance moves.


Smiley and his new friends also raised the Jolly Roger before the game even started, but it turned out to be a good luck charm since the Pirates won the game 5-3! Now that’s a great day!


Stay tuned next week for another update on what Team Smiley is up to!

Smiles!
Emily
