Join Oakland County Parks for The Great Marshmallow Drop. This free event begins at 10 a.m. at Worden Park at the corner of Lexington Boulevard and Crooks Road in Royal Oak. Watch in amazement as 15,000 marshmallows are dropped from a helicopter. Participants then need to collect only one marshmallow that can be exchanged for a prize. There are four drop zone groups:

• Children ages 4 years and younger
• Children ages 5-7
• Children ages 8-12
• Individuals with disabilities of all ages (drop begins at 11 a.m.)

American Sign Language interpretation will be on site and the Quiet Zone will be available with sensory regulation tools, such as noise reducing headphones and fidget tools.
