More Heritage Day fun: Free fun activities and giveaways, plus local vendors and food galore

I reached out to Heritage Day exhibitors about what they’ll be up to on Monday. I was a bit overwhelmed by the response. (Which is why I’ve had to run so many posts on the festival today!)

I only heard back from about half of the exhibitors, but was impressed by all they have to offer.

To reach the community, local businesses are offering a whole lot of incentives to stop at their booths. Be on the lookout for free:

  • face painting
  • martial arts board breaking
  • caricatures
  • prize wheels
  • prize drawings
  • and giveaways

There are also a bunch of local vendors selling goods/wares and even more selling food.

Here are the details:
