Attentive children and adults sit on a concrete surface, enjoying a performance.

Visitors peruse a row of classic cars with their front hoods open to reveal the engines on a grassy field. One standout has a roof-mounted tiger sculpture, and another is the Oscar Meyer weinermobile.

Two young children crouch down to pet a chicken. All are inside a wire-fenced pen with a small goat and a wooly brown sheep.

Children pose in two rows with large rainbow exercise balls in warm evening light against a backdrop of seated people and food vendor signs. Some children are seated atop the balls, smiling and forming hearts with their hands, as others hold balls overhead.

Four grey haired women dance and cheer in a park. Lake Opeka is visible in the background as a stretch of glittering cyan behind two trees with spreading branches.

A large gathering of people of various ages in summer clothing, seated on foldable outdoor chairs and picnic blankets over a stretch of grass by the lake at sunset.
