Plenty of fun at Fulton Fun Day

A few drops of rain began just shortly before the start of the 22nd Fulton Fun Day Festival Parade. But as soon as it started, the rain stopped and held off until mid-afternoon.

This year’s parade had approximately 40 entries ranging from floats, horses, automobiles, tractors, and walking units.

Following the parade, everyone headed down to Liberty Township Park to find a food, elephant ears, cotton candy, visit vendor booths, and participate in a variety of contests ranging from chalk art to softball, basketball and horseshoe tournaments and entertainment.

The afternoon rain showers cancelled the corn hole tournament and concert.
