The Village of Mar
tin and Martin Township are planning a local summer festival in the downtown area.
Alice Kelsey, a Village Council member and JC Wheeler Library director, told the Martin Township Board Wednesday evening that plans call for the event to be held Saturday, July 25.
Kelsey said the festival would include horseshoe and bean bag tournaments, car, tractor and farm equipment displays at the site of the former Boysen’s Market, music by John Keyzer’s band, food and children’s games.
Kelsey said they would have to have the area around the four corners downtown roped off to restrict motor traffic.
