Thank you to all our sponsors!  We still need approximately ten volunteers for the day (September 17, 2011, 8 am -4 pm).  Come join the Parade!!  So much fun happening at the Festival.  New foods, new entertainment and more booths!  If you have attended the event before, let us know what you think!!!

The rain all week last week served the Wild West Festival well.  The weather was great due to heavy rains that cleaned the air and cooled the temperature. 

We have had great comments regarding the event.  To that, I would like to say, it is only as good as the volunteers, wonderful sponsors, and the people who put their trust in us when they rent a booth. 

Many of our sponsors stand behind us year after year and are there for us when we call.   Never think we take that for granted.  You are part of a team that help to serve our community and we are grateful for you!!

Our churches poured out in support with cheerful volunteers that made our vendors and attendees feel at home.  We can never thank you enough!

We were loaned vehicles for the parade and others that enabled us to move through the crowds to facilitate our shuttles and made jobs easier.  You saved us from physical wear and tear.  Thank you!

I would like to thank a Board that is so committed to this community who always come forward with great ideas and back those ideas up through hard work and financial support.  You are a great team and we are so fortunate that you have agreed to share your time and efforts with the Chamber and our town. 

Thank you to the newspaper for covering this festival story

Special thanks to Kelly and Chet Wiley for using your professionalism and taking the time to volunteer to photograph the event.  We look forward to adding your photos to the website.

Then, we want to thank all our vendors.  Your cheerful attitudes, beautiful booths and cooperative attitudes made this a great place to be for our attendees!

Please give us your ideas about how the chamber can assist your business.  Are we meeting your expectations?  What are your suggestions for improvement?
