Festival of Pumpkins Report - Beth Golden reported the festival was a success. Donations came in
very well. Enough funds were raised between Sayonara Summer and the Festival of Pumpkins to
fund the moonlighting in the trees surrounding the Culbertson Fountain. Beth Golden also reported
that the festival would be on one day this year vs. two days as was in the past. Main Street advisory
board members encouraged Main Street Coordinator to check with vendors prior to ensure they
