We couldn't let this season end without mentioning two special people who were not with us this year: Linda Hermans and David Gustafson
Linda often came to Locktoberfest in costume to promote the Haunted Barn. She helped us tremendously from the very beginning by booking all the live music for our weekly markets and securing many grants so that we could fund that program. She built and incredible organization at Little Theater on the Farm and we were so lucky to have her partnership.
Dave was a die hard Locktoberfest volunteer who did so much to help behind the scenes. He was a huge music fan who always enjoyed the event and never hesitated to help with whatever we needed.
We miss them both, and though it wont be the same without them, we will continue in their spirit to bring friends and neighbors together💛
