Cruisin’ Food Fest has returned to MacArthur Beach State Park.

The event features some of the best show cars, trucks and bikes in the county. The park also hosts live music by Memory Lane, Food Truck Invasion and a kid’s area.

MacBeach recently celebrated the return of CFF with new sponsors, new music and the installation of a new osprey platform.

After more than two years of planning and construction, James Richardson of Boy Scout Troop 711, installed the new osprey nesting platform he built for his Eagle Scout Project. With the help of Kelley’s Tree Service, the platform was installed near the playground.

“We are grateful to James and Boy Scout Troop 711 for their hard work and dedication to this project,” Park Manager David Dearth said in a statement. “The new platform gives the osprey a safe place to nest with a beautiful view of the estuary for hunting.”

Next Cruisin’ Food Fest is noon to 4 p.m. Oct. 13. Admission to the event is free with park entry fee ($5 per car with maximum eight passengers or $2 per pedestrian).

John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, Palm Beach County’s only state park, is situated on a barrier island between the Atlantic Ocean and the Lake Worth Lagoon. The park is made up of 438 acres of pristine coastal land and contains four different communities or habitats, including seven species of plants and 22 species of animals on the endangered or threatened list.
