The annual Kids Picnic returned to Marvin Park (Tioga County Fairgrounds) on July 15. The event was free for children of all ages.
The event featured bounce houses, a tractor drawn hayride, games and a free bicycle raffle, among other fun. Plenty of picnic-style food was served, along with favorite treats like cotton candy and popcorn.
