The American Legion reminded me of the Junebug Jamboree. It's a big VW festival held there every year in June. Lots of bugs, dune buggies, micro buses on display and competitions. Last time I went they had a slow drag race. VW Bugs went up against each other to see who could drive 50 yards the slowest without using their brakes. Also it goes along with the botanical gardens, the Japanese Stroll Garden is a pretty cool little place. Especially during their fall festival. Riding bikes on the greenways trails is a fun way to spend the day too. Or if a person is into mountain biking and sailing, Fellows Lake has both of those things now. I'm a huge fan of the Route 66 festival in August. Great live music and cool cars on display. Pretty good list, I've been here over forty years and I'm seeing some things I need to try.

Edit: wanted to mention Thriller on C-Street every October. Pretty fun, though like a lot of those other events I mentioned it's a one day only thing.
