Memorial Park — Attraction in Newberg

We had a large group picnic surrounded by lots of other families doing the same thing. The draw was the Newberg Old Fashioned Festival fireworks at 10 pm. There was a live band, that was pretty good, and a carnival with rides that was charging absurd prices ... 12 bucks to throw three darts, are you kidding me? Anyway, that's the carnival company, not the Newberg Festival. It's food and offerings we're more reasonable. It's a busy place at this time of year.
