Oakland ushers in season with festival

Oakland’s Celebration

Among the Oaks springtime festival offered plenty of fun Saturday, April 1. Children enjoyed a display of bubbles by a bubble bus that provided them a unique interactive activity as well as different egg hunts, free photos with the Easter Bunny at the gazebo and the opportunity to purchase arts and crafts from more than 40 local vendors. The Lakeside Church hosted an egg drop at 12:30 p.m. that dropped thousands of plastics eggs from a helicopter onto VanderLey Park. Volunteers from the church welcomed visitors into the festival and also drove golf carts to and from the parking lot to provide transportation to anyone who needed it.
