Preparations are underway
Preparations are underway for the Jay County Heritage Festival set for Sept. 22 and 23.
Jay County Historical Society members and volunteers are working on the event which will honor local service organizations: Cincinnatus, Kiwanis, Lions, Optimists and Rotarians.
The event runs from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sept. 22 and from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sept. 23.
Entertainment will include the Jay Community Band, Erica Frazee, George Lopez, the Cross Connections, the Christianaires, the Mountain Laurel Bluegrass Gospel group and the Thien Snipps.
