PHOTOS from a DAY at the LEBANON FESTIVAL. August 22, 2015

Usually when I attend an event, I take so many photos that people are bored from looking at them all. This was not the case on August 22, as I attended the Lebanon Festival.

There was so much happening that I couldn't possibly take it all in!!

There was music, games, food, and vendors of all types!! 

I was so busy speaking to people and collecting donations for the replacement of the flag pole at the Lebanon Fire and EMS Blaisdell Corner Station, that I don't even know who won the raffles!!!

I did manage to sneak in a few photos while walking around the Festival lot.

I'm sorry I didn't get more, but what I did manage, I hope you enjoy!!
