The 4th Annual Maricopa Salsa Festival is Saturday, April 26th, 2008 from 12:00pm - 6:00pm.

Maricopans will have the opportunity to come out for a great day of food, fun and festivities. Complete with a Salsa Contest, Kid’s Zone, Helicopter Rides and various bands. There is no dust storm in the forecast for this year’s event so all activities will go off as planned.

Keep your eyes peeled for the “Food Bank” donation drops located throughout the park.

Make sure you stop by the JLS Promotions Booth (CR-7) for your “Scavenger Hunt” card and to enter into their raffles and giveaways. All proceeds will go towards the VFW sponsored “Bailey’s Boxes” initiative to help send little boxes form home to our troops.

Stop by the Chamber Booth for your Maricopa Chamber of Commerce Directory and maybe even pick up a souvenir t-shirt.
