My son's friend invited him to the Bon Fire at Lake Worth Beach this past Friday night. We'd never been, so it seemed like something fun to try, plus a good opportunity for the kids to hang out and roast some marshmallows.
We arrived around 7pm, and parking was easy (later on, the lot was pretty full, so if you're going, better to arrive on the earlier side). Parking was $4 minimum for 2 hours.
There was a large bon fire going, and a smaller one for roasting marshmallows. (bring your own food, plus some super-long skewers for the marshmallows!) The kids enjoyed eating s'mores and digging in the sand with their friends. Though many folks brought chairs and blankets, we didn't bother - we never ended up sitting down anyways! (Side note: be sure to use the bathroom before you go; the public one there was pretty nasty, and I was sorry we had to use it, but 4-year-olds can't always "hold it"!)
Unfortunately, this was the last bon fire of the season - if you want to go, you'll have to wait until next November! When it comes around again, I'll be sure to post a reminder - the more the merrier!
