The 2010 Nassau County Strawberry Festival  is being presented by the Kiwanis and Lions Clubs of the Bellmores from June 2 to 6 this year.

Now in its 22nd year, this festival features a full carnival, including rides and games and food as well as a strawberry-themed food and beverage area.

This year will also be the second year of the Green Expo.

"This is what our clubs are all about, improving the communities that we live in and helping the members of those communities," said John Monks, president of the Bellmore Kiwanis Club. 

Joe Anderson, Lions Club Past President, added, "it is important for clubs like ours to begin taking these steps and setting a good example for the members of our communities and show that everyone should get involved."

Additionally, a Craft/General Vendor will be held for the second year.

The festival is open to the public on Wednesday and Thursday (6-10 p.m.), Friday (6 to 11 p.m.), Saturday (12 to 11 p.m.) and Sunday (12 to 8 p.m.) Admission is $2 and parking is free.
