Festival winners announced
On August 3 approximately 2,700 people, eclipsing last year’s attendance record of 2,200, enjoyed a beautiful, fun-filled day at the 16th Annual Raspberry Festival in Cottonwood, Idaho. Along with the quilt show, car show, cultural demonstrations, arts and crafts booths, live music, and plenty of food, a “Kids Carnival” was a new addition to this year’s festival. It proved to be a popular event for children of all ages and will continue to be a part of the festival in the future. This year’s festival was also the kick-off event for the 100th anniversary of the sisters of the Monastery of St. Gertrude being “at home” in Idaho.
