Royal Oak, me. – It is spring in Detroit: warm climate, some clouds and a 100% possibilities of marshmallow.
The source? A helicopter that approaches the green grass of Worden Park on Friday, downloading spongy treats for hundreds of children anxiously waiting below, some colored baskets or with rabbit ears.

For anyone worried about hygiene, do not worry. He Great Annual Drop of Malviscos It’s not about eating marshmallows: children could exchange them for a prize bag that included a water park pass and a kite.
Malvisco’s fall was held for more than three decades in the suburb of Royal Oak, Michigan, Detroit, organized by Oakland County Parks.
A little boy, Georgia Mason, had no difficulty acquiring a Malvavisco in his first fall, said his father Matt.
“Probably the most exciting part was to see the helicopters. But once we saw the marshmallows fall, we were very excited,” said Matt Mason.
“And yes, we join melee combat,” he said, “we managed to get a fairly easy one.”
The organizers said that 15,000 marshmallows were removed in total.
The helicopter made four passes, dropping marshmallows for children in three age categories: children of 4 years and children, from 5 to 7 years old, and those aged 8 to 12 years. A fall for children of all ages with disabilities came later in the day.
“We do it because it is excellent for community participation,” said Oakland Melissa Nawrocki County Recreation Program.
“Children love it,” he continued. “The appearance on their faces while collecting their marshmallow and turning in the Malvavisco to obtain awards is excellent.”
