Magic, marimba music, and a myriad of reptiles will delight all ages at the Lacey Community Market in Huntamer Park this Saturday, August 9. In addition to free entertainment, the market will also feature more than 60 vendor booths offering flowers, produce, food, bakery treats, hand-crafted gifts, and re-purposed treasures.
The theme of Saturday’s market is Family Fun Day! Kids will enjoy free face-painting, hands-on activities, balloon animals, and inflatable rides including the 21-foot mega-slide and a bounce house. The entire family will be entertained at our main stage by “Reptile Man” Scott Petersen and his menagerie at 11:00 a.m., the joyful Mukana Marimba band at noon, spell-binding magician Michael Budd at 1:00 p.m., and a Zumba dance party at 2:00 p.m.
In addition to unique vendors, great food, activities and entertainment, the market also offers plenty of free parking and a pet-friendly atmosphere.
The Lacey Community Market is held every second Saturday in the summer at the beautiful Huntamer Park, just four blocks from the freeway on Woodland Square Loop at College Street, behind the Lacey Fred Meyer. Market times are from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. New vendors are welcome. More information can be found on the city’s official website at www.ci.lacey.wa.us/market.
