Food, face painting, balloons, education and vendors with information on health were all part of an annual community fair initiated by The Rockaway Inwood Ministerial Coalition and The First Church of God.

One of the highlights of the fair, which took place at the First Church of God in Far Rockaway last Saturday, was a visit by The American Museum of Natural History's Movable Museum. The Harmony Steel Orchestra, followed by a youth concert in the evening, provided the entertainment for the July 28 event.
Under a tent, foods from different lands were served up for visitors.
