Looking for a great way to get the whole family out this Mother’s Day weekend? Pack up your Ford and head on over to the Bloomin’ Temple Festival. This three-day event held on May 10th through the 12th will have music, games, car shows and a country music competition in downtown.
Entertainment: This festival is for people of all ages to get together and have some fun. Listen to live music played by local artists and bands such as Lee Roy Parnell, Ruben Ramos, Randy Rogers Band and others. The kids can enjoy the carnival with tons of food and games as they romp through Kid Zone or see the animals at the petting zoo. Feel free to have a picture taken at the Mother’s Day Photo Booth and save time for bike tours.
Events: Have a vehicle from your Ford that you customized with the coolest graphics and paint job? Then enter into the SPJST car show to win prizes. The car festival is almost a festival all of its own with entertainment, door prizes and great food. See if your car has what it takes to win! Even if you don’t get a prize, you can still check out all the other customized vehicles and get some interesting ideas on how you can make your car look and perform even better.
If guitars and country music is your passion, you can put your skills to the test on stage and become the next country music superstar by entering the Texaco Country Showdown. Compete against other country musicians as you impress the crowd with your sound. Play as a band or just rock out the stage on your own like the next Leann Rimes.
Do something good for the community while enjoying yourself at the festivities. Part of the proceeds will go to the Children’s Advocacy Center of Central Texas! Mark your calendar for the celebration starting Friday at 6am into the late hours of Sunday at Central Avenue and Fourth Street in downtown Temple.
