A fun day in Red Bay

She Says

Saturday marked another year of the Red Bay Founders Fest. A well-loved longstanding tradition, it’s something I, for one, always look forward to each year. I was afraid it might rain, but it woundupjustbeingcloudy, and, unsurprisingly, the community turned out in droves. From food vendors to crafts, games, music, riding the rain, the car show, the contests and more, there was certainly something for everyone.

The temperature was even just right. Check out our photos from the day in this week’s edition of the Franklin County Times. We’ll have more photos in our next issue of Franklin Living, too, so stay tuned for that…you just might see yourself or someone you know! And, if you’ve never been to Red Bay Founders Fest, make plans to attend next year. You’re sure to find reasons to be glad you did.
