Countless ladies prepare and donate gallons of delicious borscht.
Others put these ideas to paper so you can find out what's up.
Some go door to door, or even town to town, promoting our event.
While yet anoter uses her valuable time between family, job, school (endless exams. . . and life) to seek out financial support without which this event would be dead in the water.
There are some who take the day off work on Fair Friday to help with the massive job of getting the street ready.
The town employees take on extra tasks to ensure Main Street looks its best.
There are big jobs and little jobs involved with this huge undertaking, and there's a huge amount of community support to meet the challange!
We appreciate that everyone in the community tolerates minor inconveniences associated with our event. For example, individuals' patience with the street closure and the interruption of customer traffic that our corporate sponsors experience. We hope our efforts pay dividens for the other 363 days of the year, and continue to make this community a better place to live!
Thanks to you all! |
