Children of the coulee will get some stamps in their event “passport” on Saturday, June 16, when Koulee Kids Fest will be held all around the community.

Stations will be set up at area businesses where children can enjoy a variety of free activities, including painting piggy banks at North Cascades Bank, chalk drawing at Coulee Medical Center, building a dam and a river at the Grand Coulee Dam Visitor Center, piloting pedal boats at Coulee Playland, eating free ice cream at Coulee Creamery, and more.

Children will get stamps in their “passport” at each station, showing that they were there.

The festivities, which start at 10 a.m., will culminate in a 45-minute variety show by Leapin’ Louie Lichtenstein at 3 p.m. at North Dam Park, if the weather permits, or in the old middle school gym, if it starts raining cats and dogs.
