From the carnival to food to entertainment, the May Days festival has something to offer everyone when things kick off Thursday. Executive Director of the Chamber of Commerce, Marian Brisard indicates their traditional flag raising ceremony and blessing will be done on Friday even though the festival starts Thursday.

 

 

The Chamber this year is bringing back their Pokemon Go event. Brisard says this was a big hit last year and feels Pokemon Go is still popular enough to do it again.

 

 

According to Brisard, First Christian Church will host their '5K to Raise 5K' to kick the day off Saturday. Like last year, there will be an Abraham Lincoln impersonator at the Race as well.

 

 

The American Legion will have a pork chop sandwich fundraiser on Saturday night and Brisard says it goes to a great group for a great cause.

 

 

There will be even more stage entertainment throughout the weekend as well.

 

Tomorrow on Regional Radio News, Brisard will tell us more about what to expect on the Mr. Lincoln Square Stage during the four-day May Days festival in Clinton.
