Flashback to some of the Chicken BBQ days!

Our festival has had a few names, themes, and various dates! But one thing remains the same .. the goal of being together, celebrating neighbors, fun, talents & keeping traditions alive!

Do you have any great pictures from a favorite festival past?

** I personally remember the East Park vendor days as a kid! And karaoke at City Hall 🎤

Message received- you’re all just as excited about the troll as we are!

You’ll find our bridge troll around the festival ALL WEEKEND LONG - but specifically you can seek him out on the hour at the bridge. We hear he has trinkets, loves a photo op & is terrific with kids.

We’ll have story time with him, but also the library at 1030- featuring another bridge troll book.

* it’s the little things. new traditions. sparkly memories to make.
