The gates are located at the southwest end of the park at the fire station and the main entrance to Founders Park. Suggested admission is $5 for ages 17 and up (cash only). All funds go to local scholarships!

Yes!! But, there are three ATMs located on the grounds: At the front gate, at the front of the great lawn and at the back of the great lawn. BUT, the ATM's often run out of cash, so, bring your own!
This year the entrance gates and Rotary beverage booths will have credit card readers. Most vendors have their own credit card systems.
