Arthur Days Strawberry Jam
Saturday - June 2, 2012

 pie

With its roots as one of the first Merchants Sidewalk Sales Days known back in the early 40's, Arthur continues the tradition of an old fashioned, small town, early summer special weekend.

You'll find bargains for the whole family at the merchants sidewalk sales all over town. Plus lots of craft booths and flea market vendors offer their wares downtown, so get your bargain hunting shoes on and get on down here!

 Add food vendors, lots of strawberry games for the whole family, and a block full of inflatable's for the kids and you have a weekend of fun for the whole family!

 Plus Strawberries of course. Our main Strawberry Tent will have strawberry give-aways all day long Saturday. There will be strawberry pie all over the place, plus strawberry contests, and a lot of strawberry fun! Every Vendor in town will have strawberry stuff for sale... including the food vendors.

Along with the strawberry jam that you'll be able to eat and purchase in jars, there will also be a Strawberry Jam... session that is... bluegrass style. We have a number of local bluegrass aficionados that will gather along with lots of pickers and grinners from around Central Illinois, who will get together in groups all over the downtown to play their music. So, bring a lawn chair and wear your toe tapping shoes to listen to their efforts while you enjoy some strawberry pie. A

  Check out the fun Strawberry Pie Eating Contest we'll have again in 2011.
