The music of the Hill Hollow Band was outstanding. Folks listened and danced as band members sang and played a wide variety of musical instruments to the delight of the crowd. Winner of the 50 inch television raffle was Jeff Babson. There were plenty of snacks to munch on and plenty of beer to enjoy. Commemorative T-shirts were for sale and will be for sale through Parade day.
