Weekend fun in Balaton!

Last weekend was quite a busy one in Balaton.

The annual Balaton Fun Fest included activities for young and old alike, as well as some new traditions.

Balaton Area of Commerce President Brita Fricke said the weekend went off without a hitch, and she and her team are already looking forward to planning next year. The gorgeous weather drew large crowds of former Balaton faces, as well as current and new ones.

“Our little town is great to work with,” Fricke said. “So many hands go into making this event a success, and I want to thank them all!”
