Utah Lake Festival

Saturday June 2 was free fish day, as such, the Provo Utah lake Boat Harbor hosted the Utah lake festival. 

There were various booths set up; kite making, casting practice, hat making, free food, photography contest. Every member of the family was given a "passport" that needed to be stamped at each event. When the passport was full, they could redeem it for a free Utah lake Festival t-shirt. Above they are digging for shells in the sand, they found some pretty cool ones. 

Even the oldest got into the casting practice.  A few of onlookers may or may not have been hit in the head...a few times...until they moved. 

Making sand paintings with oolitic sand from the great salt lake. 

They released two hawks during the festival, it was very impressive, the kids loved it.

Cross marine projects, who do work all over the lake, offered free rides on their barges. It was pretty cool and informational...apparently the lake has an average depth of 9.5 feet which holds true just about everywhere. 

The littlest was pretty excited about this picture. 

This was a fun event with free food and plenty of activities for the family. 

We are looking forward to Orem Summerfest next weekend, one of the kids favorite city fairs.
