Busy Summer

Sorry it is taking so long to write, but things have been wicked busy.
Wild West Weekend is only 2½ weeks away and so many things to do!
I am so impressed with the ideas that people have!

New this year is WWW Horseshoe Tournament sponsored by the Dexter Regional Music Boosters. It will be held on Saturday, Aug. 04th.
Lots of music is lined up for Wayside Park on both Friday and Saturday thanks to Jim and Donna Lee Palmer and LOTS of musicians playing for free! Donna Lee is amazing. She schedules all these musicians over the 2 day period and that is no easy feat. Bring your lawnchair down to Wayside and enjoy some great entertainment.

Debbie Myers will be performing again on Renys Concert Stage on Friday night from 6 to 9 pm, with the 5th Annual Costume Contest being held right before at 5 pm.

There is a slight change on Main Street closings which cause some realignment of activities and placement of vendors/displays, but a compromise was met and on we go. (check out the website for actual times).

Not new, but bigger is the car show on Saturday night. There are many car groups being invited (they expect over 100 if the weather is good) and awards will be presented that night, instead of at the Egg Festival as in the past, appropriate music will be playing and food vendors still open.

Speaking of the Egg Festival, it is the weekend before Wild West. Stop by and say hi! I am the announcer/go to person in the office at Manson Park on Wednesday thru Saturday. Lots of fun!

Back to Wild West: The firemen are still having their auction, First Free Baptist Church is still hosting the Wild West Olympics down at Wayside in front of Chia Apartments, P&L Market Pig Scramble, Maine Choice Realty Skillet Toss, Varney Agency Kiddie Parade on Friday, Ride In to Dexter Health Care, 2 different scavenger hunts and on and on......

I would like to personally invite you to Wild West Weekend on August 3rd, 4th, 5th for a fun filled weekend with something for everyone, including an amazing array of food. Not only can you grab a bite to eat at the Vendors at Vendor Alley on Lower Main Street, but also many of our local eatery's have "Wild West" specials.
Please check out our website as we add things daily and I will try to journal my journey for the next few weeks.
Maybe if I do that, I can keep myself more organized...... one can only hope!!!!
