Forecast forces rescheduling of Derby Day festival to Sept. 16

 

Dear Vendors and Friends,

After following the weather forecast (National Weather Service) all week and then hearing from nervous vendors on the thunder/lightning predictions, the very tough decision was made to reschedule Derby Day for the rain date of Sept. 16, noon-6 p.m. on the beautiful Derby Green.

At least the majority of the work is behind us. A very special thank you to Jamie Wilson and Ed Armeno.

Thank you for your patience and all of your tremendous help. Each and every vendor is very appreciated. This list is not inclusive of everyone so spread the word pretty please.

Till then,

Sue, Ian, Elizabeth, Sue, Gloria, Virginia
