9am – 4pm Lakeside Park, off Highway 57, Jacksonport. This event is when the air will be filled with the scent of fresh kolaches(kuh-la-cheez), cherry pie and the sounds of summer fun. Stroll through the arts and crafts fair, check out the classic car, truck and motorcycle show, and take in live rock and country music from 10:30am – 3:30pm featuring the Modern Day Drifters. Kids can dig into the free Penny Hunt, and history buffs can explore the historical Erskine Root Cellar across the street. There’s lake access to cool down too! All happening in downtown Jacksonport the first Saturday in August! Free admission and fun for the whole family!
