3. SATURDAY, AUGUST 15TH will be the festival starting 8am to 8pm

Today we pause to remember the tragic events of September 11, 2001. On that day, 343 firefighters, 60 law enforcement officers, 8 paramedics and EMTs, and nearly 3,000 innocent lives were lost. Their courage and sacrifice will forever be etched in our hearts.

The Indiana Volunteer Firefighters Association honors the memory of those who gave their lives and stands with the families, survivors, and first responders whose lives were changed forever.

We encourage everyone to take a moment today to reflect, remember, and carry forward the spirit of unity and resilience that followed in the days after.

Never Forget.

Well only 364 more days until the festival!
A big thank you to my family for all the help, the vendors who make it fun, the amazing and talented music individuals, Andy Blanton for the awesome work on the car show, Greene County Sheriff's Dept for the extra patrol and parade help and last but not least the community! The people in our little town and those that visit and become friends, make the festival a success and such a rewarding event! Without you there wouldnt be a festival! Much love to you all!
