I can't wait! If I make it, I'll be there late. I'll probably be walking a very tall greyhound named Red

It keeps getting better each year. Having the bike race at the same time adds something special as well. Thanks to Beth and Vic who never seemed to stop checking things and making it all happen. Also a big thanks to everyone else who played a role, especially the SAP, the merchants, service clubs, and other organizations who bought tables... |

HUGE Thanks to Beth Ann MacDonald - she organized a flawless event. It was a really special day - the kind of day that my kids will always fondly remember. Also, a record business day as well! Great job Beth Ann!

We were there as well, and it was a really nice way to spend the afternoon. Or at least part of it. I only wish the food vendors were set up earlier... most of them really didn't have their act together until about 1:00/1:15, which is tricky with little kids who are used to eating earlier and then napping afterwards. But oh well... one day life won't revolve around naps. |

Speaking of food vendors, I noticed a lack of local merchants. There were a couple but the largest ones were the sausage and peppers guy from Englishtown and the Frozen Drink trolley from Long Branch. I'm not sure why Mayfest doesn't attract more local businesses. |

Arnomation, I saw FOOOD (OK, I actually ate some cake too ), Home Style Cuisine, one of the Chinese restaurants (sorry, I didn't see which), Spring Fields, and my wife and I were handing out Café Meow coupons (though we didn't have a table because we were supposed to be away for the weekend). I'm sure I've missed a few. And, gee, those are all SA businesses to boot.  |
