Area residents took part in the many activities at the day long event including Max Shenk, of Westminster, who watches his putt while his friends watch to see if he makes it and Delani Savoy, 11, of Templeton, took her turn at the dart throw. Will Thurlow got a Superman emblem painted on his face, while his son Gaven, 2, a huge Superman fan watches intently.
