Coloma Fest – Small Town Summer Days - Hosted by the Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park, the Gold Discovery Park Association and Coloma-Lotus Chamber of Commerce
This is a community wide event. The all day event features a classic car show with cars, trucks and motorcycles - several old time musical groups, crafters and vendors, food and drink and more. All the proceeds go toward putting a new roof on the Museum at Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park. The Museum roof's patches have finally given way and blue tarps now cover the roof. Due to cutbacks to State Parks budget, GDPA has dedicated itself to raising funds for a new roof. 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Marshall Gold Discovery State Historic Park, Coloma.
