US VRC PROVIDING INTREGAL SUPPORT FOR MARSHALL COUNTY BLUEBERRY FESTIVAL
August 30-September 2, 2024
Located in North Central Indiana, Centennial Park in Plymouth will come alive with the 58th Annual Marshall County Blueberry Festival. Held over Labor Day weekend. The Blueberry Festival is one of the Midwest's premier events and has been named a "Top 100 Event" in North American by the American Business Association.
The Blueberry Festival's main objectives are; to provide quality family activities at little or no cost, and a venue for Marshall County's many Not-for-Profit organizations to raise funds. Most organizations that participate are able to generate all their operating costs for the year from the profits made at the festival.
Craft, Commercial & Food Vendors are an integral part of the Blueberry Festival. Over 300 craft vendors from all across the United States showcase their goods. Local and regional businesses take the opportunity to promote their products and services in the commercial area. And what would a festival be without food. With over a 100 food booths to choose from there is a tasty treat for everyone. Of course blueberries are in abundance especially in our non-for-profit area. These groups offer the very best in blueberry delights like blueberry pie, blueberry ice cream, blueberry shakes, sundaes, donuts and blueberry cheesecake.
Sports activities abound all four days of the festival from youth to adult activities including softball, volleyball, corn hole, shuffleboard, pickleball and arm wrestling. Annual events such as the Hoosier Old Wheels Antique Car Show, the wildly popular Blueberry Stomp 5K/15K run, Bicycle Cruise, hot air balloon launches and glow, the fabulous Labor Day Parade and the spectacular fireworks display. Enjoy entertainment on 3 stages all weekend long, there is not cost or reservations needed. Other events and activities take place all weekend long in the community as well.
