If the leaves are changing color and there’s a crisp snap in the air, then it must be time for the annual “The Hills Are Alive Heritage Fest.”
Now in its fourth year, this Sunday’s free festival for Barrington Hills residents will feature plenty of activities for children and adults alike, following the theme “Explore The Outdoors”. Families can enjoy balloon creations, police giveaways and cool vehicles, pony rides, hay rides, crafts, demonstrations, sunset yoga, games, live music and much more.
A special new feature this year is a kite fly, and the first 300 kids get free kites. Free food will be prepared by the expert grillmasters of the Barrington Lions Club. Pop will be provided, and once again, the Barrington Service League will have a lemonade stand and will raising money for Hope’s In — a local group that builds homes and hosts medical clinics in garbage dump communities in Guatemala City.
Explore The Outdoors runs from 1:00 – 5:00 PM on Sunday at the Barrington Hills Park District Riding Center, located at 361 Bateman Rd. In case of inclement weather, fest activities will take place inside the arena, so there’s no reason not to come to enjoy the fun!
Sponsorship for this year’s Heritage Fest is generously provided by the following Barrington Hills service providers and residents:
