Celebrating Livingston Youth
Family Festival Day at the Oval, which is a community-wide celebration and a key event during Youth Appreciation Week, is scheduled for Saturday, May 25, 2013, from 10AM-3PM.  The event offers many family friendly activities including pony rides, a petting zoo, craft tents, face painters, a giant blow-up obstacle course and slides, fire trucks, adopt-a-pet, and a chalk walk, among others.  The Family Festival ends in the evening with a Movie under the Stars.

While the event is free of charge, this year organizers are asking the community to donate to STUFF THE BUS (9:00 am – 11:00 am) food drive as suggested admission. This is a community wide challenge.  Can we fill a large school bus with food?  Organizers are counting on it!
