Looking for something to make the Back to School transition more fun for your high school student? Join us for Red Hawk Fest - an opportunity for your student to connect with friends as everyone transitions back into the school year! Our Natick Police have volunteered their time to design and create this event to support our students with an opportunity to come together and have fun in a relaxed setting.

The event is designed for students only*, but will be supervised by the Natick Police and Natick Public School staff. Students will enjoy FREE FOOD AND FUN including:
  • A Grill Station hosted by Rotary Club of Natick including hamburgers, cheese burgers, hot dogs, and veggie burgers!
  •  Cool treats from Kona Ice!
  •  Fun Inflatables! 
  •  Glitter tatoos!
  •  *New* Mechanical bull rides! NOTE: Students under 18, please bring a waiver signed by your parent/caregiver (picture on your phone will work) to participate in this activity. A waiver can be downloaded and completed by clicking HERE for a PDF version and HERE for a Word version (download and save a copy before editing, please).  
  •  *New* 9 Hole Mini Golf!
  •  DJ Music and Karaoke with DJ Mike!
  •  Lawn games, including Spike Ball and Corn Hole!
  •  Paint your own pottery from The Clayroom!
  •  A Chill Zone - quiet activities, Pets & People pups, and space for connection with friends! 
  •  And even more awesome activities to be announced soon!

Donations Welcome!

Though Red Hawk Fest is organized, staffed and run by the Natick Police, SPARK Kindness will be collecting donations for this event, as the Natick Police (as municipal employees) cannot solicit or collect funds.  All donations collected by SPARK will be given in full to Red Hawk Fest. Funds collected by SPARK will cover the costs for activities, entertainment, food, event prizes, etc. Online donations may be made HERE. Checks can be made payable to SPARK Kindness, and mailed to PO Box 823, Natick, MA 01760. Please write "Red Hawk Fest 2023" in the memo line.
