This year, we’ve carved out an area where various kids activities will take place throughout the festival weekend. Each of the attractions listed below will be located at or near the Countryside Pharmacy lot on the corner of Main & Mill St. All events are provided free of charge for children and their families to enjoy. A big thank you to the sponsors and hosts that helped make it all happen!
