See You There: Blueberry Jamboree Is Tomorrow

June 12, 2009

The Barrineau Park Community Center & Historical Society will be the place to be on Saturday. The first-ever Blueberry Jamboree will kick off at 8:00am with a 5K Race for the Blueberries and will end that evening with some toe-tapping bluegrass music by local musicians. If you are in search of a fun-filled Saturday , then you’re looking for the Blueberry Jamboree.

The festival will feature family entertainment, music, great food, a wandering blueberry in costume, a Blueberry Spitting Contest, a Blueberry Bake-Off, cake and plant walks, cloggers, smiles and laughter in a family friendly environment.

The Jamboree will also feature local arts and crafts vendors and plenty of food. And of course, lots of blueberries…from fresh blueberries, to blueberry baked goods to a limited edition blueberry cookbook.

The Blueberry Jamboree will take place from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday at the Barrineau Park Community Center.

NorthEscambia.com will have complete coverage with a huge photo gallery Sunday morning.

    Everybody get out and enjoy the day at the blueberry jamboree. The people that put this together have gone way above and beyond to make this event happen. Get out and do your part to help the community as a whole. This helps support all levels of the community. The farmers, the artist, the food vendors, the performers, the volunteers, and everyone that helps to make this day possible. See you there.
