Interesting Things to do in Indiana Part I

Indiana really is full of cool things to do if you really look. For this series, we will explore some of these things. Today, we will talk about the Strawberry Festival in Crawfordsville. The 2017 festival runs June 9, 10, 11.

The festival primarily takes place on the grounds of the home of Union General Henry S. Lane. There you will find fried deliciousness! I mean, a deep-fried funnel cake is not good on your heart, but they sire taste great! There are also crafts and venders and music. I LOVE live music, and it usually consists of gospel, country, folk, and traditional. There's a car show and antique tractor show as well.

If you are a sporty person, go check out the softball tournament at the Elston ball diamonds or the tennis tournament at Crawfordsville High School. Personally, I have a blast at the softball tourney, the car show, and the music.

The Strawberry Festival is a great event in a charming, very historic town. It is great to see the community come together for a weekend and enjoy each other's company. Also, take this time to go to the Montgomery County Visitor's Bureau just a block away and take a brochure and go on one of the many Crawofordsville walking tours! You will find it is a unique town!

Next time we will talk about the Covered Bridge Festival!
