Lisa M. Anspach, FONL Events Coordinator:
It was a beautiful day for the 2019 Friends of Nolin Lake Family Fest at Moutardier Recreation Area. On top of our yearly sponsors, we partnered with Jackilyn Photography, Kona Ice Etown, Nolin River Lake, USACE, Louisville District and Sherry’s Restaurant to meet almost 200 of our friends!

The Nolin River Lake USACE, Louisville District provided water safety games and activities along with cornhole. Sherry’s Restaurant served our friends free hot dogs or hamburgers and Kona Ice Etown provided free Kona Ice to the kids.

​Friends of Nolin Lake staff and volunteers set up several activities including badminton, horseshoes, table bowling, ladder ball, outdoor Jenga and a water sponge fight. An inflatable bounce house and slide were available for those who completed the water safety activity.

Photographs from the day’s events are available on Jackilyn Photography’s Facebook page (and the Friends of Nolin Lake page). Big thanks to all who spent the afternoon with us! We can’t wait to see you at Nolin Fest on August 10th!
