THE SQUARE AFFAIR

 

Barbara Bowen Chairman of  The Square Affair is asking for volunteers to help with the festival planned for  Saturday, May 17. 

 

The Committee has met several times and plans are underway. 

 

The Heart of MS 5k run and walk, the annual Fishing Rodeo at McMillan Park, the arts and crafts vendors, a Backyard Cook- Off, the Leake Idol competition,  local entertainment, a pet parade and show, a tricycle and bicycle race, a quilt show, and numerous inflatables for the children are just a few of the events planned for that day. 

 

Food vendors have been asked to come.  The local band, Cain’s Fall will entertain during the day.  The committee is working on entertainment for the night at The Sasser Park and to close the day there will be a big fireworks display.

 

Saturday May 10, Felder Rushing will present a program hosted by the Dogwood Trails Garden Club leading up to the Square Affair.   The Committee is hoping to have flowers and fresh fruits for sale the day of the Square Affair.
