It's time to think BLUEBERRY FESTIVAL!! June 7-8, 2013. This will be the 20th Annual. Festivities will start at 2:00pm on Friday. As always, there will be around 100 vendors, children's amusements including ponies, the petting zoo and the water walkers, live entertainment, fresh blueberries and blueberry plants, and the Country Store featuring pies, cobblers, jam, syrup and more. At about 4:30pm on Friday, the Blueberry Bake-Off begins. The "Taste Buddies" from the Lake City Reporter, Genie Norman and Mary Kay Hollingsworth, have agreed to be our judges for the Bake-Off again this year. Cash prizes will be awarded for winners in three categories and Fifth Generation Farms is donating a basket for the grand prize winner. Start thinking now about what YOU will enter. Of course, Saturday morning is the Blueberry Pancake Breakfast beginning at 7:00am. Three stations will be open again this year. The Parade begins at 10:30am. Our Parade Theme is "All Fired Up" in honor of our new Fire Station. It's not too early to start planning and building those floats. Prizes are awarded for floats, equestrians and antique cars. This year's parade will have two Grand Marshalls in recognition of their work in achieving the new Wellborn Fire/EMS Station: Chief James Sommers and District 4 Commissioner Phil Oxendine. The Talent Contest (with $1,000 prize money offered) will be Saturday afternoon. Later in the afternoon will be the raffle drawing (some of the prizes mentioned are a laptop, a chain saw, and some beautiful hand-made decorations). As always, volunteers are needed in all areas. For info contact Wendell or Kathie at 963-1157 and they will direct you to a committee chairperson. Most entry forms are available on the website www.wellborncommunityassociation.com (on the Blueberry Festival page). Thanks so much, Jinny, for all you do!
