GREEN — Music, food and carnival-style games helped Green residents welcome summer and celebrate the city’s 20th anniversary at FreedomFest. The party started with a family fun run the evening of June 22 and continued June 23 with a day full of activities.

Crowds enjoying the Boettler Park event’s lineup of free inflatables for children are shown at right middle.

Clinton resident Justice Kalla, 12, is pictured at right bottom as he tries out the zipline attraction.

Children like Green residents Arianna Wish, 10, and her brother, Logan, 5, enjoyed taking a break from activities with a mist of water to cool off, as shown at left.

FreedomFest was presented with the help of sponsor Summa Health System. Shown at right top, from left, are Summa staff members Debbie Burgess and Holly Frahlich as they share a laugh over Burgess’ unique hair accessory at the Summa booth.

Attendees also enjoyed music from country band The Farm and Journey tribute act Escape before the city’s fireworks display concluded the festival.
