On Saturday, May 11th Summer Shade overflowed with people who arrived to help the small town celebrate the 7th annual Founder’s Day.
This year was bigger and better than the last with many more vendors to choose from and over 65 entries in the car show. The music was wonderful and the food was delicious.
Congratulations to the new Honorary Mayor of Summer Shade Mark Park.
The Ivan Wright Parade winner was Laurie Butler.
