Returning favorites are also on the agenda! Kids can challenge themselves at the Mount Pleasant Waterworks’ annual obstacle course, check out the impressive fire trucks from the Mount Pleasant Fire Department, and even get an up-close look at heavy equipment from Public Services. Don’t forget to visit the Mount Pleasant Police Department’s community outreach team for some friendly interactions.
Nicole Harvey, the Community Affairs and Marketing Division Chief for the Mount Pleasant Recreation Department, says, “Children’s Day offers families the perfect opportunity to get outside and celebrate the arrival of our beautiful fall weather.” This community event is made possible thanks to the generous support of local sponsors, schools, and non-profits which help to provide old-fashioned carnival games and delicious food from local vendors.
A couple of important reminders for festival-goers: for the safety of everyone, animals, bicycles, and skateboards are not permitted on the festival grounds. Food lovers will also find plenty of tasty options with local vendors and food trucks serving up delicious treats.
