The Trenton Parks Board meeting on May 13, 2025, focused on preparations for the upcoming Springfest event, scheduled for June 7, 2025, at Community Park. The meeting highlighted the growing interest in the event, with over 2,200 people indicating they would attend, a significant increase compared to previous years.
The event will feature a variety of attractions, including inflatables, a dunk tank, and a petting zoo. Local food vendors such as Skyline Chili, Domino's, and the Barking Burger Company will provide food options, alongside a shake and lemonade stand run by a local resident. Additionally, several community organizations will participate, offering activities and giveaways, including a raffle for attendees.
To ensure the event runs smoothly, the Parks Board is seeking 38 volunteers to assist with various tasks during the festival. Each volunteer will work a two-hour shift, helping to manage activities and ensure safety for children.
The meeting underscored the community's enthusiasm for Springfest, marking it as a key event to kick off the summer season in Trenton. The Parks Board is optimistic about the turnout and the involvement of local businesses and organizations, which reflects a strong community spirit.
