There are also two free gardening workshops, entertainment options like the first Music on Main event of the season in Union, plus karaoke night at Hangout Entertainment in St. Clair, large scale garage sales and flea markets, and a whole lot more!
Just a heads up – always double check with the event venue before heading out just in case events sell out or get rescheduled for some reason!
