Festival on the Hill 2016 Is Here!

The Bolton Hill Nursery has organized the Festival for the past few years, and this year, they’ll offer Festival T-shirts for sale—now made with organic cotton! and a Pie-in-the-Face contest.

Festival goers will be able to buy a bag of pompoms and “vote” for the person they would most like to see get a pie in the face. Choices include a city councilman, a school principal, a new rector and our favorite, a co-editor of a neighborhood newsletter. The “lucky” winner gets to be hit with their pie FIRST, but all the deserving volunteers will be able to delight in having a cream pie mashed on their face.

Remember, ALL the proceeds from the Festival go to support non-profits that serve the 21217 community. See related article on the recipients of last year’s Festival grants here.)

Come join the fun. See you there!
