First Aid Sponsor

STRAWBERRY JAM KIDS' EXPO
This year's celebration features the 3rd Annual Strawberry Jam Kids' Fair where families can explore a tent full of fun family-related exhibitors — from balloons to zoos! Admission is FREE. Kids’ entertainment, mascots, balloon artists, samples and items for sale made this event a perfect experience at the Fest!

On Saturday and Sunday, Language Stars hosted kids' games. Our friend from Coco Keys Water Resort in Arlington Heights, Coco the mascot, ruffled his feathers around the tent all weekend to make sure everyone was having fun, and brilliant balloon artist Tommy D. was onsite all weekend. His work is fantastic!

Featured Saturday sponsor, Whole Foods Market, served up fresh organic strawberries at the Fest, along with refreshing spritzers. Lions Club Car Show Held Saturday and Sunday. A Beer and Brat tent was sponsored by the Lions Club.

The Long Grove Confectionery sponsored a Cotton Candy Sale with proceeds benefiting Y-ME Illinois. During all 3 days of Strawberry Fest, pink cotton candy is only $2 at Apple Haus Square above the Long Grove Confectionery.
