The Cordova Recreation & Park District (CRPD) invites the community to gather in remembrance of Cupcake, our community’s beloved donkey, on Saturday, August 23 at 10 a.m. at the Hagan Community Barn. This special memorial will honor Cupcake’s life and the joy he brought to so many. The event will include speeches, live music, crafts, a memory board and more.
The event is free and open to all. We invite you to bring your stories, photos and memories to share as we come together to honor a truly unforgettable community member.
Cupcake recently passed away due to age-related health issues. Before joining CRPD, Cupcake was a therapeutic riding donkey who brought joy to many. This April, he celebrated his 29th birthday. Cupcake loved “cookies” (carrots) from visitors, peaceful park walks though Hagan Community Park with Chris and greeting kids during Crafts with Cupcake.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who loved, visited and cared for Cupcake over the years. He will be dearly missed but his gentle spirit will always be part of our Barn’s story.
