Photo Gallery: Hundreds Attend Williams Station Day; Dancers Dazzle Crowd

October 26, 2014

Hundreds attended the annual Williams Station Day in Atmore Saturday, including a large crowd for the day’s opening entertainment — dozens of dancers from a Byrneville group.

Williams Station Day takes its name from Atmore’s early history when in 1866 the community was a supply stop along the Mobile and Great Northern railroad.

Festival-goers were entertained by a wide variety of musical acts, and a wide variety of  arts and crafts were also available. After an opening ceremony that featured a pink balloon release to recognize Breast Cancer Awareness month in October, Heather Leonard’s Danceworks of Byrneville entertained the crowd.

    There should have been a sign or something on the main road, but there wasn’t that we could see. Had to ask at the car show, nice cars, too. Finally found the fest, it was fun and a great family event. A little more advertising wouldn’t hurt.

    I should mark my planner as I always hear more about this event the day after, as opposed to the days before.

    Atmore it never hurts to promote through advertising.

    If you do not communicate, you cannot convey.
