The ‘Tis the Season to Shop Local contest was a great success, with $30,000 in punch cards turned in between November 27 and December 21!

With 20 participating business, we were able to hold drawings and give away 20 prizes valued at $25 each to those who turned in punch cards, along with a grand prize of a $700 ring from Borthwick Jewelery & Coin Inc., for a total of $1,200 given back to those who shopped locally in Ferndale.

We believe this event will only grow in years to come and thank all of the businesses who were a part of the contest, as well as everyone who shopped locally.

Flicks in the Park

2015 Poster2ndmovieIf you missed “Hook” on July 10th don’t worry, “UP” is coming up.

Hook, shown on July 10th, was a great success, with over 300 people in attendance and many pirate tattoos handed out.

We look forward to showing the movie “Up” on August 7th.  Patrons can expect to see one of the historic Pioneer Park houses decorated like the “Up” movie house!

Flicks in the Park, located at Pioneer Park in Ferndale, is a free family-friendly event.

This year we are offering free hot dogs thanks to our  sponsors Larry & Beth Brown of the new Ferndale Grocery Outlet.

Ferndale Street Festival

/in , , /by

Get ready, because the 12th Annual Ferndale Street Festival is just around the corner!

Over 120 food and craft vendors, live music, Super Hero themed Kids Street, Car Show and a beer garden can all be expected this year.

This year we are excited to feature two 80’s cover bands, one 90’s cover band, a country band and a folk/alternative band.  There truly is something for everyone’s ears.

Kids Street, sponsored by the Ferndale YMCA, is going to be superhero themed, so brings the kids out in their best superhero costume!

The beer/wine tent, sponsored by Phillips 66 Ferndale Refinery, will also be themed out this year.  We’re going Hawaiian luau with a twist!  Once the light starts to fade, parts of the beer garden will begin to glow.

Make sure to mark your calendars for August 28 and 29, because this  may just be the best Street Festival yet!
