First Annual Old Town Fall Festival

Please join us Saturday October 2nd, 8 am - 5 pm and October 3rd 9 am - 4 pm for our first annual Old Town Fall Festival.  Proceeds from the festival go to  benefit Danielle Loftus who was injured in a jet-skiing accident this summer.  Here's a quick preview of the weekend:

More than 30 vendors, including Family Kettle Corn, Fat Boys BBQ, Peggy's Place mini donuts!  Wildfire Wings and Things, along with several artisians and crafters from throughout the state.  Also joining us are the  Rochester Lions Club, Boy Scouts and Razzo's. 

ABC of hair will be hosting a cut-a thon on Sunday Oct 3.  Haircuts will be free and  donations can be made to the benefit.

 Many Illinois merchants have generously donated several items for the silent auction and raffle. Wait til you see the gift cards--from shooting range passes to massages.  Something for everyone :)

There's plenty of room for more vendors!  Contact Petals & Co. 217-498-8882 or micpetals@yahoo.com for more info.
