The rest of Family Fun Day kicks off at noon and runs until 3 p.m., said Connie Barrera, an Oak Fest commissioner.
New for this year will be a performance by 's Bengal varsity cheerleaders, Barrera said. That starts at 2:35 p.m.
The theme is country day, so there will, of course, be a country line dance at 2:50 p.m. to cap off the family fun activities.
But stick around later for the watermelon contest at 4 p.m. and the pie eating contest at 5 p.m. While those contests might not be officially a part of Family Fun Day, they certainly can be fun for everyone.
