⛈️ Due to ongoing weather and flooding concerns from Tropical Storm Debby, we have made the decision to postpone Village Fest.

🤞 We will keep you posted on updates for Village Fest, but for now, we are crossing our fingers that we can have it tomorrow! Don’t worry, we will send updates through our app, Facebook, and through our robo/text system to give you plenty of notice to plan.
