Festival to Celebrate 100 Years of Marietta Community House

Kids and their parents are invited to drop by The Marietta Community House for games, food, and fun on June 22nd from 11:30 to 4:00. The event is in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the 1919 dedication of the building to the people of Marietta by the Hiestand family in memory of their son, Benjamin, and in tribute to other World War I veterans.  The festivities will focus on a theme of “old time” fun and games that were popular around 1919 when the Community House was donated. Cornhole, bean bag toss, face painting, jacks, ring toss, and many other fun activities are planned for the afternoon. Hot dogs, soft pretzels and other early 20th Century foods will be served. In the event of rain, the festivities will be held in the studio behind the Community House.
