Festival Will Be Family Celebration

Politicians lecture at length about family values. But do they know what real family values are?

In the summer, it’s swimming, baseball, hot dogs, picnics and pie-eating contests.

Organizers of the Family Festival at Comstock Park (29th and Post) realize this, and that’s why on Saturday the park will become a playground for Spokane families.

Events include baseball and volleyball games, swimming, pickle ball and a pie-eating contest. The focus of the sporting games is fun, not competition. That way parents and kids alike can enjoy themselves.

Family Festival celebrates family. It’s a way to bring together the different families of the community and have them participate in a host of social activities.

The event lasts from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Participants are asked to bring a picnic.
