July 13th, 14th & 15th, 2018
Join us for the Emlenton Summer Festival, held annually the second weekend in July. Our town-wide yard sale kicks off the weekend on Friday at 8am, followed by the Junior Fishing Derby at Kahle Lake. Saturday, you’ll find fun for the whole family including a softball tournament, kids’ events, entertainment and much more! Street vendors will be selling their wares, and of course there will be great food! A day of fun ends with the Fireman’s Parade and fireworks. Be sure to come back Sunday for the 5k and car cruise.
