A Children's Parade and Concert will take place on Tuesday, August 30th.  It all begins with an "instrument petting zoo".  Children have the opportunity to explore, touch and try our orchestral instruments in an “instrument petting zoo” with CFM musicians.  Then children, their parents, grandparents and caregivers march into the Festival pavilion to hear the delightful fairy tale, Brementown Musicians, set to music with a narrator.  The event culminates with an old-fashioned family ice cream social.
This Free event is make possible by grants by St. Charles Medical Center and WHH Foundation. Ice cream is provided at no cost by Ben & Jerry's
