The annual Earth Day Festival in Harmony Park was held this past Saturday and enjoyed by everyone attending. The weather was great as was the music. The Morgan Rowe Band played from opening until 1:30pm and rocked the crowd. People danced and spread out blankets to listen to the music.
Then there was the parade! Greg White led the parade and was followed by the Seed & Feed Band aka The Marching Abominables. They were in great “earth day” costumes and definitely entertained the onlookers.

Member of the Abominables: I love his outfit!!
Children attending enjoyed making newspaper hats, masks and pipe cleaner glasses, courtesy of Decatur’s Children and Youth Services. They also had the opportunity to plant a flower to take home, thanks to Ace Intown Hardware and the Oakhurst Community Garden.
The music ended with the wonderful sounds of 10 year old Sidney Rhame’s band, The Lockouts. The oldest member of the band is 16 and I bet these young ladies will go far. Sindey is not only a good guitar player, but a songwriter as well. I would bet that their future is very bright!
