Glendale Crossing Festival Comes to Town Tomorrow

The 43rd annual Glendale Crossing Festival is happening tomorrow.

“We have at least 500 arts and crafts booths across the community. From the proceeds of the festival this year, we were fortunate enough to be able to donate $5,000 to East Hardin Middle School’s new location. It is just a boost to the community but a boost to our economy,” stated Mike Bell, a Founder and Treasurer of this festival. 

Events will begin at 8 a.m. and the Great Crossing Festival Parade will start at 10 a.m.

Hardin County Animal Shelter in Need of Donations

The Hardin County Animal Shelter is in need of several items including peanut butter and pumpkin.

“Peanut butter is more of a treat thing, it’s one of the little things we can do to try and keep them sound until they do find their forever home. Pumpkin helps when you have dogs that have diarrhea. If we can get any type of disposable gloves, that would be helpful. Every little bit helps,” stated Director Mike McNutt. A list of supplies the shelter is needing can be found on the Hardin County Animal Shelter Facebook page.
