AKRON — The town of Akron is inviting festival-goers to help it celebrate fall in small town style. Akron’s Summer’s End Festival with the theme “Feel The Small Town Magic,” will include free games for the children, food vendors, a visit from Ms. Indiana, a stroll back in time with armchair stories of Akron long ago and laughs at the town’s local celebrity couples in a newlywed game.

Live music will be provided by a local radio station and at sunset, the park will come alive with magical lighting to enhance Pike Memorial Park.
