Lindsay Offenberger takes a break with her young son on one of the swings at Parkersburg’s Point Park Tuesday as sternwheelers start to gather for this weekend’s Riverfest. The festival is taking place on the east end of the park this weekend while Paddlefest will be at the western end. Bands are set to play at the amphitheater at the park, including Midnight Outlaws Friday evening and Band of Brothers on Saturday.
