apple festival « Boy Scout Troop 48

The 2008 Jackson Apple Festival is over, the rides and concessions are gone and the streets are cleaned up. After the remains of hurricane Ike blew through on Sunday the rest of the week had picture perfect weather and the crowds responded in kind. The folks attending the festival have once again been good to the troop and made use or our parking lots. The funds we earned will be used by our Scouts for major Scouting activities such as Summer Camp, National Jamboree or Philmont.

We would like to THANK the several local business who donated there parking lots and property for our use and are listed below, Reasor Outdoor Equipment who once again loaned us a Cub Cadett Big Country 4×4, and the Jackson Jaycee’s who sponsor the Jackson Apple Festival and also provided a link from their web site to our map showing the festival area and our parking lots. And of course THANKS to every one who parked in one of our lots. This would not be possible without this tremendous community support by every one.
