Summer Shindig Benefits Rozellville Lions Club
For food and free family fun, check out the Rozellville Lions Summer Shindig, to be held Saturday, August 12 from 9 a.m. until dusk at the St. Andrews Catholic Church parking lot in Rozellville. There will be music and cash raffles all day, a craft and car show, kids activities, and a baggo tournament.
Now in its second year, the shindig has something for everyone to enjoy. The kids activities begin 11 a.m. and have been extended this year to run until 6 p.m. Some of the activities they will get to enjoy include a petting zoo, inflatables, and games. Come for great concessions including cotton candy, snow cones, and pretzels with cheese. There will also be a beer tent.
The craft show runs from 9-3 p.m. and will feature local artists and crafters. Get beautiful artwork done on your hand with Henna by Miss from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Pricing, between $4-$10, depends on the size of the temporary tattoo.
