Cameron Park youngster Abigail Fass, left photo, smiles after taking her turn on the water slide at the Cameron Park Community Services District Summer Spectacular at Cameron Park Lake Saturday, June, 25. The event, back after two years off due to the COVID-19 pandemic, featured two live bands, food trucks and a fun zone for both kids and adults — all capped off with an evening fireworks show. Little Juniper Skaggs, a Cameron Park native, right photo, takes in her first Summer Spectacular with her grandmother Patty, who was visiting from Southern California.
