Familyfest Fun Cruise This Weekend

What started as a pivot due to Covid-19 has turned into an annual event. Familyfest was a big event at the fairgrounds every Summer for 12 years and then Covid-19 caused the organizers to mix things up a bit. Last year, they started Familyfest Fun Cruise as a way for families to still spend a day together, but instead of gathering in one place, families drive around to do various learning activities.

Familyfest and 'Hood Magazine was founded in 2009. 'Hood Magazine is published nine times a year and hosts Familyfest each Summer with the goal of engaging local families and encouraging safe, healthy family fun.
