Volunteers in support of Polk County Early College (PCEC) in partnership with Women in Business Unite will present the inaugural Spring Flair on Saturday, May 5 on the grounds at Stearns beginning at 10 a.m.
The purpose of the event is to raise funds for the PCEC to use to pay for textbooks, supplies and transportation for field trips and college trips.
The festival will include many booths at which people may enjoy shopping, face painting, games, raffles, an old-fashioned cake walk, listening to live music and eating BBQ prepared by the Polk County School Shooting Team students, coaches and parents.
The Columbus Curb Market will be just across the street, and visitors may stroll from one venue to another to enjoy the festivities.
Vendors can rent 10’ x 10’ booths; each vendor is required to provide one raffle item worth $10.
Tents and display tables are not supplied.
