Please do not forget to bring your artistic recycle products to donate to the Scrap Bin that will have booth number 31 on the front lawn of the Roop House. The Roop House along with the Archives building, Agricultural museum, Old Roopville Jail will all be open all during the festival for the public viewing.
Be sure to visit with Mr. Hugh Lee Young, decorated WWII veteran that is serving as our Grand Marshal this year and thank him and all SERVICE men and women who help to make this a safe country for us to be able to enjoy these beautiful fall days.
The judged Classic Car Show has been moved this year to behind the Fire Dept. on West Dr. Be sure to go by and vote for your favorite car. The children's play area has also been moved to underneath the trees behind J C's Discount Grocery due to the extreme heat last year, many of the rides just got too hot to use. There will be a covered pavilion for sitting while your children enjoy the many rides and games supplied by Grand Illusion Entertainment.
Of course, no one could forget all the wonderful arts & crafts and food booths which are being provided by many local Roopville area vendors this year plus lots of our regulars. For directions or more information call 404-210-7062.
