Inside the building, a large carnival with two different jump houses, various games for little and big kids, face painting and even a corn maze, will be open from 6 to 8 p.m.


Free food, including hot dogs, chips, cider, coffee, popcorn and cotton candy will be available for the first 500 people attending.


“We had a great crowd last year and are expecting even more parents and kids this year,” said organizer Sean Jamieson. “So we’re adding even more fun elements and making sure to keep the crowd pleasers from the past – like the dunk tank.”


“Kids love this festival because it is fun and they leave with lots of candy. Parents love it because their kids spend an enjoyable evening inside a warm, safe building,” he said.
