Atwoodfest Wrap-up

Thanks to everyone who attended Atwoodfest this past weekend! The weather was, well, typically scorching for the last weekend of July, but it was a good time nonetheless, raising lots of money for local projects and orgs. While I love all of our local festivals, Atwoodfest holds a special place in my heart as I have volunteered for the planning and execution of it for many years until this year, when I had to step back. I still managed volunteer for a beer tent shift and to fold a few tables and chairs at the end and get things cleaned up!

Festival season is far from over! Next up:
