About the area |
Downtown Long Beach is great place for kids and adults all through the summer weekends. That's when the town celebrates its Summerfest. There are clowns, bubbles, face painting, musicians, pets, contests, fun & games. Guess what it's all free. And there are even horse drawn wagon rides. For those who love cranberries, and who doesn't, there is the Annual Cranberrian Fair,which has been going for more than 80 years, down the peninsula at the nearby town of Ilwaco. There is a Bog tour, food sampling, live entertainment and crafters embodying the areaâs cranberry growing heritage. Festival activities also take place at the Columbia Pacific Heritage museum as well as events at the Cranberry museum. |
