When ordering tickets please keep track of your purchase date and amount. Your credit card statement will show a charge unrelated to Magical Trolley Ride for these tickets because we use Paypal as our vendor. Please DO NOT dispute the charge on your bill. It makes it messy on both your end and ours — and your tickets will be cancelled!
You CAN purchase tickets without a PayPal account. When it asks for payment information, click on the pictures of the credit cards OR the PayPal logo. This will take you to another screen that asks you to log in to PayPal. Look just below the PayPal information. there is a grey button that says “Pay with credit/debit card.” (If you do not have a credit or debit card, you may call Lakeshore CAP at 920-682-3737 and leave your name and phone number; but we truly prefer you pay through Eventbrite.)
PLUS! The Manitowoc Holiday Inn is offering Friday and Saturday night hotel stays for $79/night to Magical Trolley ticket holders. Reservations must be made through the Holiday Inn and details are in the confirmation email you are sent after ordering tickets.
Come to the Magical Trolley Ride in Your Pajamas!
We encourage everyone, adults included, to come to the event in your pajamas. We are also encouraging the spirit of giving by asking families to gift a new pair of pajamas to be given to a child in need.

In 2012, the National Alliance of Children’s Trust & Prevention Funds (https://ctfalliance.org/) developed the Strengthening Families™Protective Factors Framework into a curriculum called Bringing the Protective Factors Framework to Life in Your Work. It is designed to assist professionals who work with families and children to promote the optimal development of all children while protecting vulnerable children from harm.
Six 2-hour modules make up the training, sharing ways to help practitioners, community members and parents better understand and address family needs using a strengths-based lens.
Know The Five Protective Factors!
- Parent Resilience: The ability to recover from difficult life experiences and often to be strengthened by and even transformed by those experiences
- Social Emotional Competence of Children: Family and child interactions that help children develop the ability to communicate clearly, recognize and regulate their emotions, and establish and maintain relationships
- Knowledge of Parenting and Child Development: Understanding child development and parenting strategies that support physical, cognitive, language and social emotional development
- Social Connections: Positive relationships that provide emotional, informational, instrumental and spiritual support
- Concrete Support in Times of Need: Access to concrete support and services that address a family’s needs and help minimize stress caused by challenges
Participants will leave with:
- A better understanding of how to utilize the Protective Factors Framework in your work to strengthen families
- An understanding of how culture impacts perspectives and how to best work with families
- A renewed appreciation for the value of parents as partners in your work
