Grapevine Center’s Recovery Fest was all smiles Saturday, July 8, as Rich Blues, peer support service program manager, walked the event ringing a little blue bell.

“I’m walking around with this bell that says ‘ring for a smile,’ so I’m ringing the bell to get people to smile a little bit,” Blues said. “You’d be amazed that just ringing a bell makes them smile.”

The festival invited those in mental-health recovery to a care-free day of food, games and fun, according to Blues.
