Starting at 11 a.m. the same day, the park will host a health fair, business and vendor marketplace, kids’ activity zone, food trucks, live entertainment and “a few surprises,” according to a Monroeville Foundation news release about the day.
The event will culminate with a free concert featuring Nate Walker, a 2019 American Idol contestant.
The 19-year-old West Mifflin native was ousted after his performance of The Commodores’ “Still” in Hawaii that aired March 31 on ABC.
