Trails and Rails, a popular ensemble led by Walt Richards and Paula Strong that specializes in cowboy and railroad songs, will perform from 1:00 to 3:00 PM. An audience sing-along of patriotic songs will be part of the program. The kids’ crafts will take place from 1:30 to 2:30 PM. The afternoon will wrap up with a decorated bike contest and parade at 3:00 PM. Attendees are encouraged to bring their decorated bikes, big wheels, strollers, wagons and walkers for the contest and parade.
