Organizers said the change was intended to make prize selection easier for attendees and to reduce repetitive ticket entry.

Jane Grody, identified in the event as the Norwood Day treasurer, said the group assembles multiple baskets for the raffle and uses proceeds to fund scholarships, holiday food baskets and support for local school and music programs. \"We put together those baskets,\" Grody said, describing both gifts for children and food or household items for families and seniors.

Grody said some baskets are priced at a minimum retail value of $100, organizers assembled about 40 prize baskets this year, and ticket pricing was adjusted to $1 each or 6 for $5 to simplify sales. She said last year the group spent approximately $2,200 to $2,500 on about a dozen holiday baskets and that the organization seeks to spend locally on Norwood programs.

Volunteers and funeral-home partners helped assemble prizes and run raffle sales; organizers said ticket sales would continue through the afternoon with drawings to follow. The organizers invited community feedback on event logistics through their Facebook page.

There were no formal municipal actions at the event; fundraising and distribution decisions are handled by the organizing group and its volunteers.","Organizers changed the raffle to basket-specific ticket bins and said funds from Norwood Day support scholarships, senior assistance and local school programs; volunteers described how proceeds are spent.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6166148,"Norwood Day returns with free kids activities, sponsor-supported contests and community booths",635,169000,804000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5416103-faea902f61a9058b4789837992598b57&start=169&end=804","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5416103-faea902f61a9058b4789837992598b57/thumbnail_169000.jpg","/articles/6166148/Norwood/Hamilton-County/Ohio/Norwood-Day-returns-with-free-kids-activities-sponsor-supported-contests-and-community-booths","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6166148-571fdd49e248114a0c768d1c1ffed525/orig.mp4?Expires=1771154104&Signature=VtQTEO6V9n8cSdaPHuEmclovOATKfiDA57PVE5ufwLrLdIpPWuPfp5yMFIDIyIlTGgYWs0XghYnHhvNoMHdWRfmPUqKO5xnhnZ993nKHAxZNsPTPZx6stMrLfc~0bRFBhEA9DL6NYHcR7Uu93slCrnBkyGlVzvbL0Wq0LuZuDg-xvMDRV5mHXOZJHv9ec94N17Oel0yAAnvNAQ3IYNQJaR~9zma2hbcsMB7YGljCLVP~U~ENmGGm3veIte0PQEZIiaKeN1koWSpaCDVDxcc42t73YZi5jkEdpVefJY9OvAtQVIFjyKClClbsrQF3aoL~BtHcHOPotr9dsLGCH9JzVQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Norwood Day returned to Victory Park with free children's activities, a basket raffle and community booths supported by local sponsors and volunteers. Organizers said bounce houses and children's games were provided at no charge and a range of civic groups, businesses and volunteers ran booths and contests throughout the day.

Organizers and volunteers said the event was smaller than past years but aimed to preserve community traditions and direct proceeds to local scholarships and assistance programs. The event included a flag raising, a display and explanation about a military tank, musical accompaniment from a returning DJ and a dunking-booth alternative.

The bounce house and slide were rented from a company called Party Go Round; Norwood Together purchased that rental so children could use it without charge. Volunteers and public works staff handled setup and cleanup, and an auxiliary officer from the Norwood Police Department was present for security. Local businesses donated raffle prizes, baskets and in-kind support.

Organizers said the scaled format was partly a response to recent local business changes and limited lead time for planning. Raffle and ticket systems were moved to a basket-specific format so attendees could target prizes they wanted. Volunteers said the new approach reduced the repetitive ticket-entry process previously used and appeared to be well received.

The event concluded with plans to collect feedback on format changes and to consider a larger program next year if volunteer and business support permits.","Norwood Day at Victory Park resumed with free children's games and a basket raffle; organizers credited local sponsors and volunteers for supporting a scaled, community-focused event.","actionData","errors"]
