Hillyard Festival, 2005...
Rolling around the festival in a golf
cart ("Karenoia Gofer Service") I saw a
whole lot of things in short amounts of
time. My take is that this years
festival was truly a neighborhood event.
Hillyardites arrived from all points
with family and friends for a stroll
among the vendors. The air was vibrant
with laughing children, music and
conversation, bratwurst and corn on the
cob. In spite of the heat, the parade
route was lined from beginning to end.
Wherever I went, people were enjoying
themselves.

Hi everyone,
I would just like to take a minute and
thank everyone who helped make this
year's Festival a success. Aside from
the heat keeping the usual crowd down,
it was great. We had so many volunteers
for the parade, breakfast and at the
park, it was amazing. Thank you all so
much.
By the way, A Big Thanks to the VFW for
letting us hold the breakfast there. I
am not sure how many we served, but it
was a great place to have the breakfast.
The auxiliary ladies had the room all
decorated and everything ran pretty
smoothly. If you didn't come, you missed
a great breakfast!!!
Thanks,
Desi
HFA President |
