🎉 Pendleton Street Fair was a joy this year!

We loved seeing everyone come together on Main Street to take part in our community chalk project. From bold designs to little doodles and everything in between, the sidewalk turned into a shared canvas filled with color, creativity, and connection.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and left their mark—we loved seeing your ideas come to life right under our feet. 💛
