Perkasie Springfest

6. Perkasie Spring Festival: Downtown Perkasie will come alive with the sounds of music and the aroma of ribs grilling when SpringFest 2013 gets underway at noon on Saturday, May 18.

• At 7 a.m., competitors will begin arriving at the Main Tent (Seventh and Market) to begin the the slow, mouth-watering process of grilling their ribs.
• At 10 am, a 5K Run/1-Mile Fun Run will provide a perfect opportunity for someone looking to try a 5K run for the first time or for an experienced runner looking for a nice level run in a beautiful setting.
• As soon as the ribs are cleared out, the pies will arrive for judging and sampling starting at 2:30 p.m. The popular — and sloppy — pie-eating contest will commence at 3 p.m. for Big Piggies and Little Piggies.
• At 4 p.m., the crowds will gather along 7th Street for the always exciting Big Wheel Downhill Derby. Competitors will risk life and limb as they hurtle down a steep hill on their customized Big Wheels.
• At 5 p.m., it’s time to relax as the beer and wine sampling tent opens, courtesy of the Pennridge/Perkasie Rotary Club. Enjoy craft beers and local wines to finish the day.
