Corn Festival t-shirts
Youngsville hosted its fifth annual corn festival last month and several area businesses demonstrated their support by wearing Youngsville t-shirts to work. Shown is the staff from Richard’s Family Restaurant wearing corn festival t-shirts. Youngsville t-shirts are still available, which include tie-dye and the new Youngsville shirts created by artist Joanne Oviatt. The shirts can be purchased at the Local Artist CoOp/Allegheny Artistry, Holmberg Hair Salon or by calling Helga at 563-4959. Proceeds benefit the revitalization.
