Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's Ribfest event great!

An estimated 3,000 people visited downtown to enjoy BBQ, music, and festivities.  It was a hot day, but the rain stayed away and allowed us to enjoy activities like HOOPS basketball, a bounce house, a hog calling contest, face painting, concessions, a photo booth, a carousel, and so much more.
