Logan Lawrence released the following statement:

“Thank you to everyone attending. I hope you all will continue to come support the event and cause the first Sunday of May every year. Our 70+ volunteers did a terrific job making the event flow smooth and made it easy on me. The support and growth of this event makes me beyond words. Also, huge thank to the city of Lawrenceburg for all of the support they provide and allowing us to utilize the beautiful area of downtown Lawrenceburg. This event raised thousands of dollars for the ALS Association to find a cure while providing a very successful day for our local merchants.”
