Hosted by Gritters Library, CobbWorks, and Cobb PARKS, this high-energy, family-friendly celebration offers free entertainment for all ages—rain or shine!
What to Expect:
Attendees can look forward to a lively afternoon filled with music, activities, and a taste of local flavor! A live DJ will keep the energy high while families enjoy inflatable games, face painting, bilingual storytime, and community resources. The event will also feature a high-energy Bollywood Dance Challenge and special appearances from local partners and sponsors. Food will be available for purchase from The Patty Wagon and King of Pops, offering delicious bites and cool treats to enjoy throughout the day.
“This event is all about bringing the community together in a fun and welcoming space,” said Slone Williams, Communications/Community and User Engagement Division Manager. “We’re excited to partner with CobbWorks and Cobb PARKS to offer families a chance to connect, enjoy free entertainment, and learn more about local resources—all while having a great time at the library. We reopened Gritters Library to the public last year, and this event is our way of reintroducing ourselves to the community. We want everyone to know: we’re here for you.”
Thanks to the generous support of Fontis Water, Chick-fil-A Sprayberry & Lassiter, and Parties Pronto, this event promises to be a joyful celebration full of community spirit and family fun.
