Community Flea Market 
The residents of the Larchmere Community Association are joining the merchant ranks!  The parking lot at Mo and Son's will be full of community tables selling everything from grandma's fine china to toys and toasters.   From collectibles to useful finds, the variety promises to be surprising and rewarding.  The official LCA 50/50 raffle station will be here too.  Buy some tickets to help support the community security program!

Entertainment
It's not a festival without music and rides.  So, music and rides we will have!  We also invite all children who participated in the Parade the Circle  festivities to come in costume for special prizes and treats!  Why?  Because it's a shame to work that hard on a costume and to only wear it once, and we know you'll have fun just walking down the street as a fairy or a dragon or hula-hoop caterpillar.  Show us your creations in an informal setting so we can tell how cool they really are. 

Food Offerings
Of course there's already great food options on Larchmere.  But special events call for special diversity and flavor, and that means festival food.
