Celebrate National Park and Recreation Month at this free public event for all ages. Come for live music, food trucks and fun activities, including a climbing wall, inflatable obstacle course, bounce house, caricature artists, face painting and more.

FMR has a long history of restoring land in and around Hastings. Swing by our booth to chat with staff about how you can become a Vermillion Steward to make an impact on Hastings' local prairie river and the waters that pass through it to the Mississippi.

Free public parking lots and side street parking spaces are available near Levee Park. Pets are welcome but must be leashed at all times. Food trucks require cash or card payment. 

Thank you to our partners and funders:
