Coast Guard Festival Craft Fair
(Fri) 9-7, (Sat) 9-5
The Coast Guard Festival honors a very important and often unappreciated branch of the military, the Navy. Just kidding, the Coast Guard. My dad was a "coastie," and my family has enjoyed the festival a few times. With 50,000 attendees and 165 exhibitors, it gets crowded, but it's so worth it.
