The community of Newark Valley continues its annual tradition of celebrating summer with Summerfest, scheduled this year for July 29 beginning at 9 a.m., and concluding with fireworks at dusk. The majority of the events take place at Trout Ponds.
The event will offer activities for all ages, along with live music and entertainment, superb food, and a not-to-miss parade that steps off at 10 a.m.
Activities at Trout Ponds Park include a children’s play area with games and activities, vendors, crafters and artisans, food and snack booths, and much more.
