Tiftarea YMCA’s Healthy Kids Day and Rutland Farms’ Strawberry Jubilee in Tifton this weekend

TIFTON, Ga. – Saturday is shaping up to be a perfect day for family fun and fresh air, with two big events kicking off at 10 a.m. right in Tifton!

Start your morning at the Tiftarea YMCA for Healthy Kids Day, a free event packed with activities to get kids moving and families connected.
