Kind Human of the Year
It all began with a simple idea: to celebrate individuals who embody the spirit of kindness through their everyday actions. Whether it’s lending a helping hand to a neighbor in need, brightening someone’s day with a simple gesture, or going above and beyond to make a positive impact in the Colonie community, the Kind Human of the Year award honors those who exemplify the power of compassion. Nominations are open until Friday, May 2. The selected individual will be celebrated at PackFest on Saturday, May 17, during the opening ceremony. Nominate someone now.

Live DJ
This year’s event will feature a Live DJ, providing a lively atmosphere throughout the day with great music to keep the energy high and everyone engaged. From upbeat tunes to crowd favorites, the DJ will ensure the celebration is filled with fun and excitement for all ages!

Lucky Puppy Dog Rescue
They’ll be on-site with adorable dogs available for adoption, along with all the paperwork you need to bring a new furry friend into your home.

Touch a Truck
Have you ever wanted to step inside a Sheriff’s armored truck, explore a fire truck and all its equipment, or see a giant dump truck up close? Now’s your chance!
