new Coalfields Folklife Festival

[VHSLhelper 571]

in Grundy weekend of June 6th.

Basically nothing for the youngins.

First-year deal, so we don't expect a huge turnout.

brochures are being set out at county businesses (mainly sit-and-wait places like small stores, beauty shops, auto shops, etc.) and at the library.

I didn't organize the event, but I was on the tourism board and am proud to say that I proposed this festival a couple of years ago. The folks that are coordinating this are very dedicated to promoting tourism in the area and they have put a lot of time and effort into pulling it off.

 

I hope that it is well attended and look forward to it becoming an annual event with tons of growth in the future.

 

should be interesting and fun for all.......

Sis said that if you and your dad still want to do something, give her a call.

I misspoke slightly ... there ARE activities for the youngins at the library, but no carnival rides.

Enoch's Branch road suffered some damage due to the recent heavy rains, so ALL events that were scheduled for Enoch's Branch have been MOVED to Poplar Gap Park (accessable via Poplar Creek, Little Prater or Lovers Gap).
