The first day of the East Perry Community Fair is now in the history books. One of the highlights of this first day was the weather. We were blessed with a perfect day. There’s another big day ahead today. Most of the photos I took involved the afternoon parade. The first set of pictures show people along the parade route awaiting the parade to begin.
