The Roots Fest hosts all the children's and family activities in Caras Park, entertaining 3,000-4,000 children and their families for two days. SpectrUM Science Discovery Area, along with many other local organizations will provide fun and educational activities including a youth performance stage, face painting, crafting, children's music, a high school rock band competition and more.
