Oftentimes, the development of the DeWitt County Museum grounds is the barometer for how close we are to the Apple n' Pork Festival, but local business leaders and non-profits, that is, how much of their inventory is ready going into the Monday before the festival.

Dave Jackson owns the Clinton Save A Lot and has been working with groups for several weeks now, helping them get ready for the biggest weekend of the year in Clinton.
