“We are welcoming trucks, trailers, side by sides, walking groups, bicycles, horses, and
more”, said Main Street staffer Tracy Vainisi. “Church groups, businesses, civic clubs,
and community members can showcase their spring spirit in the Best Southern Small

wants to celebrate spring to come out looking fabulous and ready for some fun. He

this event will be a celebration of all they have accomplished.”

There are a limited number of tickets left online and at the Main Street office, 135 E. Bankhead Street.
