“Lemonade Days has always been a family type event, so the communities you typically see around our schools and organizations with big participation from children get quite excited about it … and that, of course, gets the parents involved,” said festival co-coordinator Tom McGurk. Those partaking in the Lemonade Days experience will discover an itinerary packed with classic carnival attractions — rides, games and concessions — in addition to live music, a petting zoo and a dunking tank. The weekend will also see the Dunwoody Arts and Crafts Guild presenting the works of a number of Southeastern artisans. That way the children get a carnival and the adults get something, too.
Free Parking:
If you're coming from the South (I-285 or Peachtree Road) the Peachtree Middle School lot is large and convenient to the park. It will be on your left shortly before reaching the park and will be well-marked. Kingswood United Methodist Church is very convenient for attendees coming from Tilly Mill Road, or the "heart of Dunwoody".
There will be signs to direct you to these parking locations. We are thankful for Peachtree Middle and Kingswood Church for allowing FREE parking!

Jeannie Caryn 6:00pm – 7:30pm
Jeannie Caryn found her way to her guitar as a means of escape. Raised in “Sin City,” Las Vegas, Nevada, she longed for something other than gambling, neon, or plastic to which she could surrender her soul: “Something that would not implode like old buildings on the Strip,” she says. The guitar entered Jeannie’s life as a gift from her grandmother and she learned early that music was a catharsis for handling and understanding emotions like love, loss, and angst.
