Ahoy Mateys! Pirate Adventure at the City Park
Get ready to shiver your timbers! This Saturday, the City Park transforms into a swashbuckling pirate haven for Family Fun Fest. Kids can participate in a treasure hunt, learn to tie sailor knots, and even try their hand at sword fighting (with foam swords, of course!). Face painting, pirate-themed crafts, and a bouncy castle shaped like a pirate ship will keep the little ones entertained for hours. Food vendors will be serving up classic pirate fare (think fish and chips and juicy burgers), and there will be live music with sea shanties and other lively tunes to set the mood. Don’t forget your eye patches!
Superhero Training Academy at the Community Center
Calling all aspiring superheroes! The Community Center is hosting a Superhero Training Academy on Sunday as part of Family Fun Fest. Kids can participate in obstacle courses designed to test their strength, agility, and speed. They’ll also learn some basic self-defense moves (all age-appropriate and fun!), and get to design their own superhero costumes and masks. A special guest appearance from a local comic book artist will offer kids a chance to get their creations autographed and learn more about the art of comic book creation. This event is sure to leave your little ones feeling empowered and ready to save the day (or at least the neighborhood).
Animal Encounters at the Zoo
Get up close and personal with amazing animals at the city zoo’s Family Fun Fest event. This Sunday, the zoo is offering special behind-the-scenes tours, allowing families to learn more about their favorite creatures and even get a chance to meet some of the zookeepers. There will be interactive animal demonstrations, including a reptile show and a chance to feed some of the more friendly zoo residents. Remember to bring your cameras to capture those memorable moments with sloths, monkeys, and maybe even a cuddly koala (check the zoo’s website for specifics on available animals).
Arts & Crafts Extravaganza at the Main Street Square
Unleash your inner artist at the Arts & Crafts Extravaganza in Main Street Square. This Saturday event boasts a wide array of creative activities for all ages.

This is a wonderful opportunity to create some lasting memories and perhaps even discover a hidden artistic talent in your family.
