To the Editor,

Card­ing­ton Her­itage Festival

Friends of Card­ing­ton would like to thank the greater Card­ing­ton com­mu­nity for your sup­port at the Card­ing­ton Her­itage Fes­ti­val held on Sat­ur­day, June 23, 2012. We are most appre­cia­tive and thank­ful to our fire, police and street depart­ment per­son­nel, the Amer­i­can Legion, Vil­lage of Card­ing­ton coun­cil mem­bers, Mayor Susan Pey­ton, and var­i­ous com­mit­ted busi­nesses, churches, and mem­bers of our com­mu­nity who have helped us pre­pare for this spe­cial day of cel­e­bra­tion! This event was well attended and enjoyed by many!

We also extend our deep­est apolo­gies to our com­mu­nity for a fea­tured item in our adver­tis­ing that did not occur the day of the fes­ti­val. Friends of Card­ing­ton offi­cers and fes­ti­val com­mit­tee mem­bers had worked very closely with an amuse­ment com­pany to pro­vide rides,games, and a cou­ple con­ces­sion stands and were assured we would have these fea­tures to offer our res­i­dents; how­ever, due to cir­cum­stances out of our con­trol, these fea­tures were not present. The details of why this hap­pened are being worked on to deter­mine the cause of their absence and at press time, may still be unknown to us.

Overall,we are very pleased with the out­come of this suc­cess­ful event! Many spe­cial thanks to our spon­sors: Mor­row County Hos­pi­tal, Byers Ford of Delaware, Card­ing­ton Yutaka Tech­nolo­gies and many other great local busi­nesses who spon­sored and/or pro­vided events which helped make the day a mem­o­rable one for all of us! We would also like to thank our spe­cial guests: WVXG Clas­sic Rock 95.1, Doug Brown, First Fed­eral Bank, our live musi­cians (who pro­vided won­der­ful enter­tain­ment) among many oth­ers!! We look for­ward to mak­ing next year even bet­ter and encour­age mem­bers of our com­mu­nity to join us in our endeav­ors to plan future events! Our next meet­ing is Tues­day, July 10, 2012, at 6:00 p.m. in the coun­cil cham­bers of the Card­ing­ton Munic­i­pal build­ing located at 215 Park St. We hope to see you there as we plan for sum­mer and fall activities!

Yours in Service,

Andrea Hazen, Pres­i­dent, Friends of Cardington
