Upper Arlington shopping plaza Tremont Center will show its appreciation to the community and its customers during the 56th annual Tremont Center April Fools Celebration April 4, according to a press release.

The celebration, which will run from 8-11 a.m. in the center’s parking lot, will feature a free pancake breakfast and plenty of free family entertainment. The event will be held rain or shine and is open to the public.

 
“The April Fools celebration is a tradition that’s as old as Tremont Center itself,” says center manager Steve Hess. “It’s one of the many ways our merchants show appreciation to their customers and our community, and we’re looking forward to another big turnout this year.”

This year’s celebration will include Chris Cakes’ Amazing Flying Pancakes, free coffee and donuts, a petting zoo with local farm animals and entertainment by Luke the Juggler. There will also be an autograph session with former Ohio State Buckeyes tight end Rory Nicol and enter-to-win contests for a flat-screen TV, iPod, kids’ bikes and merchant gift certificates.
