“We want to provide family fun activities for our community that everyone can enjoy," said Walden. "A huge thank you to all our co-sponsors: The Edmonson Voice, Sun Valley Feed, Dunaway Lumber, Mammoth Cave Transplants, Sue and Benny Lindsey and Scott Lindsey.

Editor's note: Edmonson Voice Staff reporter/photographer Moriah Peterson attended the festival for the purpose of covering the event for our local news. While there, pageant coordinators talked her into entering the contest, which was all in good fun. Moriah had never entered a pageant before. Low and behold, she won the category of age 22 and up, married. Congratulations to Moriah as she now goes on to state competition in November.
