Guests can enjoy live music from Phil Baker, face painting by Run Til You Fly, and even a Bubble Hair Braiding Station courtesy of Stewart Schools. There will also be a free hot dog grill-out sponsored by Smithfield, raffle baskets, and swag bags for the first 50 attendees.

Plant lovers will want to stop by the Plants with Purpose booth, where visitors can browse and purchase plants while learning more about the House's gardens. Proceeds from plant sales directly support Ronald McDonald House South Dakota and the families it serves.

Small Acts, Big Impact: Bring Your Pop Tabs

The event also encourages attendees to bring along their collected pop tabs. While they may seem small, pop tabs help raise funds that support families staying at the House during some of life's most challenging moments.

For decades, Ronald McDonald Houses across the country have provided a "home away from home" for families with children receiving medical care. By offering comfortable lodging close to hospitals, families can stay together and focus on what matters most - the health and recovery of their child.

The Family Fun Fest and Bubble Bonanza is a chance to learn more about that mission while enjoying a fun-filled afternoon with the community.

The event will be held at the Ronald McDonald House at 825 South Lake Avenue in Sioux Falls. Guests should enter the parking lot from West Avenue.

Best of all, admission and lunch are completely free, making it an easy way for families to kick off a summer Saturday while supporting an organization that makes a difference for South Dakota families every day.

I don't know about you but when I travel I spend time taking in the local flavor of the places I'm visiting. It so happens I get a real kick out of small-town roadside attractions.
