    @Fred, the folks that were bringing the atteactions for the kids was a No-Show. Very disappointed in that company. Next year we will use someone local for kids attractions to insure that they show up.

    It was way to hot and way to humid. Sponsers can’t control that, but there was nothing for little ones to do but the pony ride. We walked around for 15 minutes and the 7 year old wanted to leave. No ‘Bounce House” as promised.. I know this was the first year, but there is lots of room for improvement.

    Had a blast at the festival! Have to give a BIG thank you to Kim Godwin for letting me set up there. I loved being a part of it! Can’t wait for the next one!
