The Gray Blueberry Festival was a lot of fun. Good crowd and the music was excellent. The Zoot Jumpers, Girls Just Want to Have Fun, and Jenny Jumpstart and the Cap Guns were all great. In the sixties, when I grew up, the summer entertainment consisted of the Fireman's Muster. No bands, no dunk tanks, no craft fairs. Just volunteer firemen showing off the new gear. It was cool.
