A Festival Smooth Heals won’t miss! “The Fairborn Sweet Corn Festival August 15-16, 2009″ in Fairborn Ohio

This is an EAR-Resistible festival. You’ve seen eating contests of all sorts but until you’ve seen teeth chop away at corn-on-the-cob like an old-fashioned typewriter, you aint seen a corn-eat’n contest. In addition, there’s a variety of entertainment, activities, arts and crafts and lots of fresh corn.

Mention the word “smooth” at my booth for an additonal discount!

Come to Swiss Wine Festival August 27-30, 2009 in Vevay, Indiana!

Celebrating the 200th Birthday of the first vintage of commercial wine in America!

From area wines, twirling batons to culinary delights sizzling on grills, the Swiss Wine Festival each year celebrates, as well as salutes, the cultural heritage of Switzerland County, Indiana. Now in its 38th year, the four-day event, held on Vevay’s riverfront, uniquely blends tradition and fun. From opening day on Thursday to closing time Sunday evening, the Swiss Wine Festival caters to all ages and interests. Arousing polka music to toe-tapping country emanate from the three entertainment stages. Several of the youth-oriented contests sport colorful Swiss dress, ranging from intricate embroidered aprons to tied kneeknockers for lads.

Riverboat cruises allow passengers to enjoy the county’s pastoral landscape nestled alongside the towering Hoosier and Kentucky hillsides. The Beer Garden and Wine Pavilion afford spots of tranquility where visitors can converse with old acquaintances and newly met travelers. Rigorous canoe racing, hefty stone tosses and splashing grape stomps beckon those who favor adventure. And all birthday records diminish to single numbers during the Grand Parade Saturday morning and the fireworks extravaganza hours later.

To reach the host destination, the Paul W. Ogle Riverfront Park, travelers just need to head south at the town’s only stoplight on Indiana State Road 56. The river and crowd, just two blocks ahead, always extend a hearty welcome!
