Even though it’s practically in my back yard, I had never made it to Lorain’s Port Fest. Maybe I overlooked it since it goes on shortly after the city’s big International Festival.
Maybe I had just been busy.
.
But this year, coinciding with the 4th of July weekend and consequently being reduced to one big day, I decided to make sure…
.
…that I headed down to the picturesque Black River Landing.
Those familiar with the International Festival noticed a similar setup here…
…along with familiar ethnic food…
…and merchandise.
But Port Fest definitely was different, especially with the presence of booths that…
…educated festival goers about biological surveys…
…and raised awareness of their philanthropic activities through games…
…like the rather generous Head Start.
Thanks!
