Wellborn —
The Wellborn Community Association is looking for participants to join in the fun of our 19th Blueberry Festival. The parade, talent contest and Blueberry Bake-Off are ways in which you can participate and possibly win cash or awards! Although the Festival is not until June 1 & 2, we are approaching the entrance deadlines for these events. Participation forms can be downloaded at our website, www.wellborncommunityassociation.com.
If you have a favorite blueberry recipe you would like to enter in the Blueberry Bake-Off Contest, you can contact Jackie Slaughter at 386-330-5283 for information. Bake-Off entries will be accepted beginning at 4:30 p.m. on Friday, June 1. Prizes will be awarded in three categories.
The Blueberry Festival parade will start at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 2. The theme is “Think Green” (e.g., recycling, water conservation), and we are privileged to have as our Grand Marshall, Suwannee County Fire Chief Charlie Conner.
