Fontana?s Reid Park will undoubtedly be packed this Saturday, September?1st as friends, family and neighbors come out to celebrate Dan Green?s Pig in the Park, a pig roast now named for the man who was one of the founding fathers of Pig in the Park, an?event that brought the community together to enjoy fun and fellowship while raising money to support the Little Foot Playground.
The fun begins at 4:00 p.m. with a kid?s area filled with tons of stuff to keep the kids busy.? A bounce house, obstacle course, petting zoo and pony rides are the main attractions, but face painting, speed ball, T-shirt making and bungee basketball promise to be just as much fun.? The kid?s area will close at 8:00 p.m.? The beer tent and live music also start at 4:00 p.m. and will remain open until 10:00 p.m.? The entertainment will begin with Big Al Wetzel & Friends from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., Mac & John will play from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and students from the School of Rock in Williams Bay will perform from 8:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
There are 3 meal options this year.? Kid?s tickets are $3.00 and include a hot dog, chips, a cookie and a juice box.? Adult tickets are $10.00 and include a pulled pork sandwich, hot dog or brat, baked beans, chips, corn, dessert and a non-alcoholic beverage.? For anyone interested in a rib dinner, tickets are $20.00 and must be pre-ordered thru the Village of Fontana by calling 262-275-6136.? Food service begins at 5:00 p.m.
Dan Green was a great guy and very devoted to the community he lived in.? He was a Fontana Park Commissioner, a Fontana volunteer firefighter, a contractor for the Illinois Department of Transportation and a real estate agent at Keefe Real Estate.? He went out of his way at every turn to do something nice for anyone who needed it.? He touched a lot of lives and is missed by everyone.
Please consider taking some time this Saturday to stop at Reid Park in Fontana and show your support for the community that Dan loved and one that he worked so hard to make a nicer?place for everyone.
