Dive Into the Fun
You’ll find plenty to do once you’re through the gates. Between laps in the pool, grab something from the concessions stand and settle in for a couple of hours of low-key summer fun with the family. The event is put on by 2nd Saturday Trades Day Prairie Grove, with support from Main Street Prairie Grove and American Legion Post 146.
Snag Your Tickets Early
Tickets are free, but you’ll need them to get in, and each family is capped at six. You can pick yours up at The Locals Flea Market or Cove Creek Dry Goods & Gifts. Just stop in and ask. Tickets are also available at the “All You Can Eat” Breakfast, which runs every second Saturday of the month.
The party comes together thanks to organizers Kay Dewhurst Shreve and Lora Carte-Fox, working alongside 2nd Saturday Trades Day to keep summer nights easy and free for Prairie Grove families. Grab your tickets ahead of time, then get ready to jump in.
