Several organizational changes have been made this year.’We believe these changes are in the best interest to our vendors and visitors as well as to ensure protection of the wonderful additions to the landscape. Be sure to visit the information booth and find out where your favorite vendor is located,’ said organizer Anita Neath. Children’s activities will now be relocated in the grassy area behind the fire station and will include pony rides, the Farm Bureau petting zoo and inflatable bounce houses. Most food vendors have been relocated to the center of town. ’Our vendor numbers have increased this year, with the addition of many new craft booths and there will also be vendors on the back street,’ said Neath.
