In an effort to raise money for the Fund the Forest program, the City of Mountain Home partnered with the Chamber of Commerce to host the first annual Endless Summer Festival of Beer on Saturday, Aug. 19 from 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

The festival included over 20 types of craft beer from different brewers within the state as well as food vendors from Mountain Home and Boise.

The city estimates over 2,500 people attended.

Kids were able to play in foam or on inflatable jungle gyms as parents socialized and enjoyed craft beer.
