September in Lawrence County means two things, homecoming and Septemberfest. No matter what the reason, the entire town gathers first at the Homecoming football game at LCHS and they make their way into town for some Rotary Hash or a funnel cake. The entire weekend is spent meeting up at your class reunion and walking main street for the best food on earth.
Louisa Rotary president Chris Jobe said this morning that with the beautiful weather and a huge crowd his group sold completely out of their famous “Bahama Mamas” and Rotary Hash. “We sold over 1,200 Bahama Mamas, and all the hash,” Jobe said.
This year Lawrence County’s own Kelsie May was the main attraction taking the stage on Saturday night. As always, Septemberfest was a huge success as thousands gathered to celebrate the occasion together.
“Septemberfest 2017 was a special year. The weather cooperated the entire weekend and assured festival goers a comfortable and fun filled festival,” Louisa Mayor Harold Slone said. “I am so proud of our community for the participation in the festival. The committee, the businesses, and vendors all make this possible. Entertainment and a fireworks celebration made this 30th year one to remember.”
