Edmonds’ first-ever Oktoberfest drew a crowd to Frances Anderson Field Friday, as attendees enjoyed beer, live music, food and games on the festival’s first day. The fun continues Saturday, starting with a 9 a.m. 5K run and a 10:15 pet parade — both at Frances Anderson Field, followed by a day of activities for families and adults alike.
