In addition to music at Interlakes Corner on Friday evenings, the Interlakes Economic Association’s next big event is the inaugural Show ’n Shine from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Aug. 24, for cars and motorcycles.
There is no registration fee, but participants, who should arrive around 9 a.m., are asked to register by Aug. 17. Just drop by V-Squared at Interlakes Corner any day except Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Food will be available at the Show 'n Shine, as will entertainment, and the “best” vehicles will receive prizes.
Fundraiser changes
This year, instead of a Thanksgiving Sale, Sulphurous Lake District Volunteer Firefighters’ Association Ways & Means Committee is having a flea market from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Aug. 30.
This will include books, crafts, baked goods and stacks of yard-sale goodies.
Hicks showcased
Jim Hicks is the guest artiste in Bridge Lake Library’s Community Showcase for the month of August.
Jim’s woodwork is well-known, especially his unique birdhouses. His creations can usually be found at Loon Bay Saturday markets in the summer.
Free space
Vendors wanting a free space at the Aug. 17 Bridge Lake Fair at Interlakes Hall should call the writer as soon as possible.
All spaces are outdoors so vendors should come prepared for any and all weather conditions.
