Floyd County’s annual Arts & Crafts Fair, along with the Rescue Squad’s Pancake Breakfast at Station 1, highlights a busy first weekend of activities for October 2018.
The pancake breakfast starts things off Saturday from 7 a.m. to noon and the festival at Floyd County High School runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Shuttles will run from parking lots behind the Courthouse and downtown.
Lots to do and places to go to do them. After a few days of dry weather, Friday is forecast to see scattered thunderstorms, showers Saturday and afternoon storms on Sunday.
Have fun, be safe and keep an umbrella handy.
