## Resource

Fiesta Village, the beloved local hangout with mini golf, arcade, and endless family memories since 1974, is closing its doors after 50 years — and the emotional farewell is already underway. Owners Michelle and Patrick O’Brien, who took over in 2002, say rising costs and shifting entertainment habits made staying afloat impossible. Fans are pouring in to relive childhoods and honor a landmark that shaped generations. With no buyer found in two years, the final weekend (Friday 3–10 p.m., Saturday 1–10 p.m.) is being turned into a heartfelt send-off — don’t miss it if you’ve got stories to share.
