Kimberly Frenze, event coordinator at the Coventry Parks & Recreation Department, kept watch on the festivities kids, grandparents and parents enjoyed the attractions, perused the businesses vending on the green and enjoyed lunch and refreshments from food trucks fielded by La Loncherita, Lemon Lane Lemonade (fresh sqeezed lemonade), and Iggy’s.

Near the bounce house attractions, provided by Bing’s Backyard Bash, Cathy Cudoni supervised her grandson, Lincoln, 2, as he enjoyed an inflatable axe-throwing game.

“We just got here. So far, so good,” Cudoni said as Lincoln honed his inflatable axe marksmanship.
