Family Fishing Day

Buffalo United Front is preparing to host our 18th Family Fishing Day, which is the largest in New York State, taking place Saturday June 28th and Sunday June 29th 2025 from 10am to 3pm at Freedom Park (foot of Ferry).

This free event is designed to bring together families from across the Greater Buffalo Niagara Region, for a fun-filled day of fishing, picnicking and games. In previous years we had hundreds of people and volunteers come to the event.As a proponent of unity and peace, The Buffalo United Front is devoted to our mission of uplifting core values and promoting healthy family development. We feel the more proactive things we teach our young people, the less trouble they get in.  It is through support from businesses and people like you that allow this mission to be realized. We need your help to ensure the Family Fishing Days is eventful and enjoyable.  Your in-kind donation or monetary support indicated in the areas below will move B.U.F. closer to providing our community with another fun, safe and memorable summer event for kids of all ages and their parents. The requested donated items will be used for the following: prizes, raffles, silent auctions.  Please specify below what area(s) you would like to receive your sponsorship.

An Overview of Freedom Park

If you haven’t come down yet to Freedom Park to enjoy an installment of Healing By the Water, perhaps this look can help entice you. Each Thursday, from 5pm until 8pm, there are some of Buffalo’s best musicians (Playing for FREE!), great food and gift vendors, community partners, groovy people as well as the best vantage point for our incredible sunsets. The park fills up, but you are invited to come be a part of the joy.

It is one of the best vibes around, come on down, now through Mid September. See you Thursday!

Healing By the Water, Opening Night

The 2024 season of Healing By The Water in Freedom Park got underway Thursday night, July 11th with music from the reunited Buffalo r &b legends, the Exoutics with some help from the 4.0. The large crowd got treated to an evening of great music along the water, some great food and gift vendors to form a great community. We do it again this coming Thursday evening and throughout the Summer. You are cordially invited to join us for a great time in the sacred ground that is Buffalo’s Freedom Park
