Celebrating its 32nd year as Hamilton’s largest community event, residents and visitors can enjoy vendors, exhibitions, food, entertainment, children’s activities and much more at Septemberfest.
Septemberfest is scheduled for 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 14 in the township’s Veterans Park. Festival highlights include new activity areas for children, a crafters’ area for adults and a live radio broadcast from 94.5 FM WPST.
Two special Kid Activity Zones will be offered inside Veterans Park’s Klockner and Kuser Road entrances.
The Klockner Road end of the park is set to feature the Touch-a-Truck exhibit where children can get a first hand look inside various vehicles. Other activities include a fire truck “bouncy,” face painting, a petting zoo, a children’s slide and an Antique Automobiles display.
The Kid Activity Zone on the park’s Kuser Road side will features several amusement rides tailored for younger children, a rock climbing wall and other attractions.
