BEAT THE HEAT
Tired of visiting the same splash
pads each summer? While des-
tinations like Heritage Park and
Kensington are great, variety is the
spice of life. So, if you’re willing to
drive a little, there is no shortage of
places to get wet:

FESTIVALS
Festivals and summer are syn-
onymous. Michigan weekends are
packed with events centered around
art, food, music and outdoor activi-
ties. For a comprehensive listing,
visit michigan.org/events. Want
something unique? These two festi-
vals may be worth a road trip:
Later this month, visit the West
Michigan Chalk Art Festival
(wmcaf.com) June 16-17 at the
Tanger Outlets in Byron Center,
a mall just outside Grand Rapids.
The two-day festival includes a kid’s
chalk-art event, public viewing and
face painting.
Did you know that Freemont,
Mich., a town with a population
of just over 4,000, is the baby food
capital of the world? It makes sense
once you know that the Gerber
Products Company is located here.
So it shouldn’t be a surprise that
Freemont hosts the National Baby
Food Festival (babyfoodfestival.
com).
This four-day festival, starting
July 19, has far too many events,
contests and activities to mention. A
few highlights include parades, frog-
jumping and turtle-racing contests,
bubble gum-blowing and hula-hoop
contests, obstacle course, bike race,
fun run, water-balloon toss, penny
scramble and scavenger hunt.
Adults can participate in a baby-
food eating contest. Participants
work in pairs, while a blindfolded
team member tries to feed his or her
partner the jar the fastest. •
