  1. Free food and refreshments
    • Copper Shores is serving up local favorites: pasties from the Mohawk Superette and subs from Sundae at the Park, along with refreshments, including water and sports drinks. Tables can be found under one of the park’s many new pavilions (that we funded last year!), providing shade and comfort for those enjoying the food.
  2. Fun Activities for All Ages
    • Attend the picnic and find raffle prizes, bounce houses, games, face painting and more. There is sure to be something for everyone in the family to enjoy!
  3. Support Local Organizations
    • Visit the nonprofit organization expo and get to know the local resources that are available to community members. This is the perfect opportunity to find a helping hand for a variety of issues like food insecurity, health and recreation. 
  4. Raffle Prizes
    • You can get raffle tickets by visiting the nonprofit organization expo and chatting with vendors. Take your tickets over to the Copper Shores tent for a chance to win lawn games, camping gear, a new bike, a 120 qt cooler and more.
  5. Pop-up Farmers Market
    • Find the Pop-up Farmers Market and taste the local difference! For one time only, these farmers will be selling their goods outside the normal Farmers Market lineup. 

Copper Shores has great pride in all it has accomplished, but it wouldn’t be possible without support from community members like you! As a thank you for years of support, come on out to the park for a relaxing and fun day, free of charge.
