With a rich history of providing family fun for all ages, the annual Village Hospital Greer Family Fest promises to be better than ever this year, the 26th anniversary of the event. Greer is growing, and Greer Family Fest planners have an expanded vision for a spectacular event that reflects the growth Greer is achieving. This year�s event will feature the best of the old and add exciting new activities with the goal of being the Upstate�s favorite family festival. This two-day event features live music on the Garfield Main Stage and the Dick Ploof Community Stage, Children�s Parade and Anne Helton Creation Station, Mitsubishi KidsZone, Bloom Food Court, and over 75 arts and crafts vendors throughout the festival!Entertaining activities for all ages will abound at the 2010 Greer Family Fest. Favorites like Creation Station, petting zoo, and live entertainment are on schedule, in addition to new elements designed to add an extra level of enjoyment. Local restaurants will offer a variety of enticing foods for attendees to savor. Local artisans will feature their work at booths interspersed throughout the festival. A full list of food and craft vendors and entertainment is available on the event website at www.greerfamilyfest.com. The festival is FREE to the public! Tickets to purchase food, beverage and children�s rides can be available on site; craft vendors sales are cash transactions. The event is alcohol-free, and pets, coolers, skateboards and bicycles are not permitted in the event site. Greer Family Fest is designed and sponsored by the community for the community. Local businesses and individuals volunteer time, funds, and ideas to create an event where families experience fun activities and enjoy being together with other families from around the Upstate. Last year�s event drew an estimated 20,000 festival-goers, and planners anticipate an even greater response as the event is promoted stronger than ever for 2010.
