This post documents my experience on September 12, 2015.
The Beavercreek Popcorn Festival is a big festival…
…consisting of a huge stretch of road (and a side pocket) lined with booths…
…made up of craft artists…
…product sales consultants…
…local businesses (Ashley Lynn Photograph)…
…local organizations (Greene County Parks and Trails)…
…local churches (St. Luke Catholic Church)…
…local politicians…
…a crazy abundance of Bows and Arrows…
…a fantastic selection of food…
…and popcorn…
…popcorn…
…Korean popcorn…
…take-home-and-make popcorn…
…pretend-it’s-a-toy unpopped popcorn…
…kettle corn, flavored corn…
…caramel corn…
…Popcorn Pizzazz…
…and even more popcorn.
Some of that popcorn eventually spilled onto the street…
…but festival goers brought their leashed dogs to help remedy that situation…
…while appreciating the Puppy Pals Rescue booth…
…Sparky the Beavercreek Fire Department mascot…
…and a fine assortment of dog breed T-shirts.
Beyond all the shopping and eating…
…the festival offered musical entertainment…
…caricatures…
…balloon hats…
…dunking…
…and at least two kids’ areas…
…where there were inflatables…
…games…
…and face painting.
