For a neighbourhood party, the mascot brings neighbours together around a friendly character. It is made to measure, in your neighbourhood's colours.
Why have a mascot for a neighbourhood party?
Street meals, car boot sales or neighbours' day: you meet families who live side by side without speaking. The mascot breaks the ice, makes the children laugh and gives the adults something to talk about. If the neighbourhood committee adopts it, it becomes a local figure you find at each edition, just by its colours, and which residents recognise as their own, well before the activities start.
Tips for neighbourhood life
- Let the residents choose the name and colours, for example at a meeting or by a vote on a poster.
- Plan a rotation among volunteer neighbours, with a clear list showing who wears the mascot and when.
- Organise a route in a street closed to traffic, and set out light barriers to keep vehicles away.
- Link the mascot to the highlights, such as the start of the treasure hunt, the drinks and the prize draw.
Customising the neighbourhood mascot
The mascot is made to measure: colours, neighbourhood name or logo and comfort accessories are chosen on the product page. A 2D sketch and an approval proof are available before manufacture, which leaves time to consult the residents.
Frequently asked questions
How do we fund a mascot for the neighbourhood?
It depends on your committee or association. Subscriptions or a quote request to the town hall can help spread the cost.
Who can wear the mascot?
Any healthy adult with no breathing problems or dizziness. Outings are short, with a companion nearby. This avoids having to manage too much jostling during the party.
