A Day to Remember
From the moment guests arrived, the atmosphere buzzed with energy. Children bounced in inflatable castles, families shared snow cones under shady tents, and volunteers offered warm hospitality with every interaction.
Highlights included:
- Games like cornhole, axe throwing, dunk tanks, and obstacle courses
- Arts and crafts stations for kids of all ages
- Music, iced coffee, and yoga
- Free food, including grilled burgers, hot dogs, pizza, popcorn, cotton candy, refreshing drinks, and more
- Military family resource tables staffed by various local partners and organizations
Strengthening Bonds Through Service
At its heart, the 2025 Summer Fun Fest wasn't just about having fun; it was about strengthening the bonds between veterans, their families, and the broader community. Volunteers from numerous local nonprofit and for-profit organizations were on hand to answer questions, share resources, and listen.
