Waldron Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center will hold the Waldron Fun Festival on Saturday, August 20, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. The free event is open to the public and will be held at the skilled nursing facility grounds at 505 N. Main St., in Waldron, Ind. 

“This will be a very special, family oriented event that everyone can enjoy,” said Nicole Clapp, Administrator of Waldron Rehabilitation. “In the spirit of being a good community neighbor, we enjoy holding various events including this one throughout the year. It’s a great way for people of all ages to gather and enjoy a night out.”  

The family friendly event will feature a corn on the cob eating contest, food, face painting, carnival games, and more.  

For attendees so inclined, the event will also have a donation box that will be there to collect money for two local charitable efforts: Operation Love Ministries and back-to-school snack packs for local kids in need. 

Waldron Rehabilitation hosts a variety of yearly events to benefit the community’s kids and families. Past events have included Easter egg hunts and visits from the Easter Bunny; Halloween trunk or treats; Big Wheels races with the kindergarten class; and drive-through holiday lights and decorations.
