So the &#8220;celebration&#8221; included 1) lots of kids stuff (a bouncy room, a ball room, some kids&#8217; arts and crafts tables, sack races, balloon tosses, etc.), which we didn&#8217;t participate in because we don&#8217;t have a kid, 2) a stage where there was local music (think old people local music, not good local music), and 3) a row of concession tables\/trailers selling carnival food.
