YMCA 125th Birthday and Art in the Park

Jess and I took the kids to two great events this past Saturday.  The YMCA 125th celebration was held at Ascarate Park and was free to all families.  The YMCA did a great job of having fun activities and entertainment for the kids.   Jazz liked the art projects stations and Stevo spent most of his time playing basketball in one of the inflatable jumping balloons.  The YMCA of El Paso deserves a great big pat on the back for putting on this great family event.

The YMCA Festival Tent

We headed out to Memorial Park after the YMCA bash to check out the Art In The park Festival.  This was the first year we had ever attended the festival and had a good time checking out all the local artists and dance groups.  We had a great time at the festival and look forward to attending again when the festival returns in the Fall.
