This includes a 3-on-3 basketball and even a Spikeball tournament. Events like these call for photo ops, so there will be those as well during the KIND Summer Fair. Music with some of the city’s top DJs, lawn games and of course, food and drinks are set to be part of the fair as well.
Attendees can additionally get complimentary slushies, snow cones and lemonade.
