“It was a fabulous Day in Foster Park!” said Kelley Weaver, President of Friends of Fulton Parks. Recently, the volunteer non-profit group aimed at restoring Fulton’s parks hosted “A Day in the Park” at Foster Park offering a free evening of fun for all. “Many groups, organizations, and individuals each brought their piece to the puzzle and the result was an afternoon filled with family, friends, fun, and physical activity in Foster Park,” Weaver said. “The event was a success because of everyone who was involved, and the Oswego Federal Credit Union who sponsored the event.”
This Saturday (June 10) Friends of Fulton Park, as sponsored by Oswego County Federal Credit Union, will present a day full of free fun at Fulton’s Foster Park. The event will include music from KingKat DJ Music, an inflatable obstacle course, bottle flipping contests, horse rides, an animal show, face painting, games, and more.
