MT. VERNON – The Mt. Vernon City Council got an update from Mt. Vernon Tourism’s Angela Schrum regarding next weekend’s Fall Fest at Monday’s meeting.

Schrum says entries for the parade on Saturday, Sept. 27 at 1 p.m. are still available. Volunteers are also needed for parade staging along with the information tent and for the Cruise-in on Friday, Sept. 26.

Schrum says over 100 vendors have signed up and will cover three downtown blocks, entertainment will be on the main stage Friday night and Saturday after the parade, and the Kid Zone will be held in one place at The Commons instead of it being spread out like it has been over the last few years.
