The 62nd Annual Bass Festival kicks off this week in Mancelona and runs through Sunday, June 4. Along with the popular midway and rides, additional activities have been planned for the 2017 event.
MANCELONA – Anyone aspiring to become the local Cornhole champion should limber up and head on over to the Mancelona Bass Festival. The contest is being held for the first time this year on Saturday at 4 p.m., and is just one of many activities that the whole family can enjoy at the 62nd Annual Bass Festival.
“We are always trying to add family events,” said Lori Gooden, the secretary and parade coordinator for the Bass Festival Committee.
This goal of creating more opportunities for families to participate in the festivities is what inspired the committee to not only add new unique events such as the Cornhole tournament, but also make a slight change in the schedule in hopes of getting more children downtown and taking part.
