People had a great day in the sun enjoying Summerfest at Melaleuca Field on Saturday. The annual event, sponsored by Apple Athletic Club, invited families to have to good time.
“It’s an absolute summer event. So it’s fitness, it’s getting out, it’s the weekend before school starts. So it’s the last big ‘give back to the community sha-bang’ before school starts,” said Lauren, Summerfest co-owner.
Live music, volleyball tournaments, bounce houses and even a pie-eating contests filled the all-day event. The first 250 people received a free gift from Cabela’s.
The family-fun day promoted a weekend filled with healthy choices and getting outside to have a good time.
“This is a fun family event fun for all ages of the family. We have vendors here, we have batting cages, we have pitch throws, we have volleyball, we have performers,” Lauren said.
If you missed out on the fun, be sure to look out for Summerfest next year. All of the proceeds of the volleyball tournament is going toward the Idaho Falls Soup Kitchen.
