| Ironwood - July 17, 2009
Festival Ironwood went into full swing tonight with the opening
ceremonies taking place at 4:00 PM. Members of American Legion Post
Auxiliary #5 provided the Honor Guard at the flag raising.
Members of Post 5 and other community groups got an early start in
preparing the food and beverages for the evenings patrons. There was a
"Turkey Feed" a delicious deep fried turkey feed also conducted by "The
Friends of Festival Ironwood".
"The Friends of Festival Ironwood" also sponsored the free Polka Dance
with Richie Yankovich and Polkarioty playing Ironwood's favorite
music genre'.
The big duck pond immediately attracted the kids hoping to win one of
the great prizes available.
At 8:00 pm the teen dace with DJ Music by Magnum took place. This
event was also free compliments of McKevitt, Patrick Funeral Home.
