The Apple Festival will feature fun for the whole family, including bounce houses, children’s games, fire safety demonstrations, live music, a bake sale, food vendors, community vendors selling unique products and of course, apples.

The event is a fundraiser for the Harmony Valley Volunteer Fire Department, with 100 percent of the proceeds going to the department to purchase life-saving equipment and supplies. In the last five years, the festival has raised over $15,000 to benefit the department.

To get there, take Interstate 15 Exit 42 and head west on state Route 144 for 5 miles to the park.

The Harmony Valley Fire District is the first responder agency for fire and rescue in the area, covering 40 square miles, including 8 miles of Interstate 15, and staffed 100 percent by volunteers out of two stations.

The goal of the fire district is always to provide a high level of service to the community. The fire district is always thankful for any donations.
