IRRIGON
Watermelons and more
are featured during the 33rd
annual Irrigon Watermelon
Festival.
The event kicks off
Saturday from 6:30-10 a.m.
with a breakfast hosted by
the Irrigon Moose Lodge at
Irrigon Marina Park. There’s
a downtown parade at 10

way back to the marina park
where the family-friendly
event runs all day and into
the night.
“We’re trying to get the
community involved,” said
Charlene Cooley. “It’s a
fun way to build a sense of
community.”
While there is no admis-
sion fee for the event, people
should bring a hearty appetite
and some extra change. Food
and craft vendors will be
available throughout the day.
And slices of watermelon are
50 cents each.
Festival-goers will have
several ways to beat the heat.
