From a medieval mash-up to a festival on the water, there's no shortage of things to do this weekend in West Michigan.
Boulder Ridge Wild Animal Park
A trip to Boulder Ridge Wild Animal Park is always a great time, but this weekend will be extra special because it's "Baby Animals Weekend" on Saturday, July 20 and Sunday, July 21. Bring those cameras and immerse yourself in the delightful world of baby critters that will melt your heart. There's even a chance to pet and interact with some of them including spider monkeys, hippos, penguins, kangaroos, fennec foxes and more. The special weekend is included in your regular admission price, and there's a schedule of the animal talks and feedings on their website .
National Baby Food Festival
The Gerber Company was founded nearly 100 years ago in Fremont, and it became one of the biggest baby food companies in the nation. Every year the community loves to celebrate that history with the National Baby Food Festival. It started earlier this week and wraps up Sunday, July 21. Come hungry! No, you won't be eating baby food, there are food trucks on-site along with a kids' expo, carnival, kids bike parade, petting zoo, baby crawl and grand parade. Attendees can also eat baby food as well, by entering the baby food eating contests. There's a disc golf tournament, a cornhole tournament and a car show. Check out the full schedule of events here .
