Kid’s Carnival at Farmer’s Market
IRON MOUNTAIN — The Iron Mountain Main Street program has announced that the Farmer’s Market Saturday will feature a Kid’s Carnival. The carnival will include pony rides, a petting zoo, and face-painting for children of all ages, in addition to the different vendors. “This should be a really fun time for the kids while Mom and Dad shop for all of the fruits and vegetables for the week,” said Main Street Coordinator Patrick Reagan. “Because a lot of kids don’t live on a farm, the Promotions Committee is happy to be able to bring part of the farm experience to the families. It should be a really great day.” Both the pony rides and the petting zoo are through Party Time Pony of Rapid River. Children’s face-painting is performed by Lonna’s Face Painting of Norway. There is a nominal admission fee to the petting zoo, as well as for the pony rides and face painting. All activities will begin approximately around 9:30 am and run until 12 noon.
