Our Guide To Summer Festivals In Rochester is presented by Parenting Village’s 9th Annual Family Fest on July 21 at Rothfuss Park.
Parenting Village is hosting its 9th annual Family Fest on Sunday, July 21st at Rothfuss Park from 2pm-6pm. The organization’s free flagship event is the only one of its kind in the area. Local family-related businesses and organizations encircle the park’s perimeter and offer engaging children’s activities while providing information to parents about their goods or services. Family Fest will include free mini-classes, activity tables with hands-on demonstrations, inflatables, food trucks, a petting zoo, raffle and silent auction, and opportunities to play and connect with other families. The welcoming atmosphere offers something for everyone and gives parents and their children a taste of a supportive village without borders. Sponsored by Crazy Dog T-Shirts and Soccer Shots, among others, the Fest will have more than 50 businesses providing free activities, information about family resources, and more.
