Once again this year, we are proud to work with our friends at Tanager Place for a free event to kick off the summer each year. Enjoy the family fun at Tanager Place Summer Fest. Activities and events include:

  • Car show
  • General Mills Make Your Own Cereal Tent
  • STEM Tent
  • Camp Zone
  • FREE inflatable rides and more

Not to mention, the Tanager Place Summer Fest Balloon Glow.

It all takes place at the Rockwell Collins Sports Complex, 400 Collins Road NE in Cedar Rapids on Saturday, June 2 from 3:30-8:30 p.m.

They are still looking for volunteers, so if you'd like to sign up to help, please visit their event page now.

Admission is free, but there will be a nominal charge for refreshments. Breaking news: the inflatables, which had a cost in the past, will also be absolutely free this year!

The event is made possible by community sponsors and supports the mission of Tanager Place:

We serve children and families struggling with behavioral and mental health challenges. And in doing so, we build stronger, more resilient, more compassionate communities.

Whether enjoying the fun and supporting the community, or volunteering to help at the event, we hope you'll attend!
