Fairies and Forts is the 2014 summer kick-off event and children’s concert at Crystal Mountain Resort’s Michigan Legacy Art Park, featuring Joe Reilly on Saturday, June 21. What better way to usher in the celebration of long summer days than to sing, dance and use your imagination in a natural setting? This event is from 2–5 p.m. Admission for children is free, $5 per adult or free with a general Park admission.

Children of all ages are invited to create their own fort or fairy house, flower tiaras, fairies, flags and drums. Fairytale story time is sponsored by the Betsie Valley District Library. Joe Reilly is a singer, songwriter and educator from Ann Arbor who writes songs from his heart. Reilly’s songs are playful, clever and engaging. After the concert, Reilly will lead participants on a march to the Fort for the annual raising of the flag. Light refreshments will be provided.
