The three day event, beginning this Friday, September 29th will last through October 1st. This is just a very brief listing of events taking place that weekend. There will be a Purple People Eater Picture Show (a movie in the part at 8:00 on Friday night, a Purple Parade downtown on Saturday morning at 10:00; Sheb’s Shindig, a street dance on Saturday night from 8-11 p.m., featuring the Jimmy Lee Jordan Band, a pancake breakfast planned for Sunday morning, plus Wooley’s Bazaar, a three day vendor’s market to display and sell their items. Not to mention a Car Smash, dunk tank, and a raffle for a hog hunt (knives only!) at the Lost Creek Ranch. The hog hunt winner will be announced Saturday night. Tickets for the hog hunt raffle are $5 each.
