Enjoy free family-friendly games like bubble soccer, giant checkers, and more with Joint Training Facility! The Cumberland Mermaid Pod will be on hand to create some face-painting magic, and Mountain City Center for the Arts will perform. And don’t miss the famous pie-eating contest, with pies donated by the iconic Frostburg diner the Princess Restaurant!
What’s an outdoor event without great music? The Bobby Preston Amphitheater will be alive with music throughout the day from The Hounded – blending rock and country, Gilbert Lee & the Ghost on the Radio – an eclectic indie-rock band, and The Jakob’s Ferry Stragglers – known for old-time, bluegrass, country, jazz, rockabilly and swing.
Bring the whole family for a full day of outdoor fun in the beautiful Hoffman Hollow Park, tucked in amongst the trees of Mountain Maryland. Check out delicious local food vendors, grab a brew from the beer truck, indulge in some retail therapy with over 20 craft and artisan vendors, and so much more. All while supporting FrostburgFirst’s efforts in downtown revitalization!
