Historical Society’s Cider Fest will offer demonstrations, car show and more Richard Hamilton, of Harvard, was asked to consider learning flintknapping while demonstrating bird banding several years ago at a festival in Belvidere. He embraced the challenge with his usual enthusiasm, and today is keen to demonstrate this dying art at events such as the McHenry County Historical Society’s Cider Fest this Sunday, Oct. 4. Visitors to the 43rd annual Cider Fest also will be able to see broom maker Bob McCann at work, as well as a historic cider press. Thanks to COVID-19 restrictions over the summer, this year’s fall fest will be anchored by the Society’s antique car show – typically held in July. Sponsored by Intren, O’Connor Electric and Prairie Community Bank, the free (donations requested) car show will feature sports, classic and antique cars. Top cars will receive trophies, including one for Best of Show. As in the past, a one-of-a-kind People’s Choice trophy and door prizes also will be presented. For car show information, call Tony from TJ’s Klassics at 847-5158110. DJ Jose Ramos will be spinning “oldies” as part of this year’s festival, which will include a mum sale, selfie station
and food vendors: including Sweet Shop caramel apples, Julie Ann’s apple cider donut sandwiches and corn dogs, hot dogs and funnel cakes from Skinner Amusements. Cider Fest runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the museum, 6422 Main St. in Union. Face coverings and social distancing will be observed on the grounds and inside the museum, which will open for free, timed tours throughout the day. In addition, there will be restricted access to the Gannon family 1843 log cabin and 1895 West Harmony one-room school. Hamilton said flint, chert and obsidian are used to making cutting instruments such as arrowheads – essential survival tools in the days before machines automated their manufacture. “You can sit and make gravel with everybody else and then all of a sudden it grabs you. Then you go find yourself an old guy or old woman and they help you out,” Hamilton said. “Its just one of these skills you have to watch. It’s a lot like muscle memory. You’re not thinking about it. Your muscles are doing it.” For additional information, visit www.gothistory.org or call 815-923-2267.
Scenes from the 2019 Cider Fest higlight the car show and demonstrations. McHenry County Historical Society’s Cider Fest will be held this Sunday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 6422 Main St., Union, Ill. For more information on activities visit www. gothistory.org. SUBMITTED PHOTOS Hi-Liter
