At 7 p.m. the night really came alive with a kid friendly Hubie Ashcraft Band performance.
The fun didn’t stop there, as Saturday saw an early-bird Firemen’s Breakfast at the Fire Hall from 6 to 10 a.m. and a parade that started at 1 p.m.
There were downtown vendors from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., and a free exotic zoo at Bakers Park from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m., and a cruise-in from 5 to 7 p.m.
The gates for the 6 p.m. truck pull next to the Fire Hall were opened at 4 p.m. to the public, where attendees were entertained while able to grab delicious snacks from vendors, making some wonderful communal memories.
