The Union County Covered Bridge Bluegrass Festival has long been dear to the hearts of many residents and visitors alike. The festival planning committee has worked diligently for 11 years to present a unique celebration focused on our county heritage, music, food and fun. This year the committee members learned that the area typically used for the festival would no longer be available to serve as the event site.

We are taking advantage of this opportunity and excited to share that we are focusing on two of the most popular festival offerings. This year the dine on a covered bridge opportunities and guided bustours of the bridges will be expanded!

The unique experience to dine on a covered bridge is now being expanded to include three meal options on Sept. 27-29 with all taking place on the Pottersburg Bridge (1868) located on Inskeep-Cratty Road. The celebration of covered bridges will continue through scheduled bus tours available to the public. 

The celebration of local food and our county’s covered bridge heritage not only will present opportunities to create treasured memories but will raise funding to support the Pottersburg Bridge Preservation Fund housed at the Union County Foundation.

We hope you and your friends and family will join us on this fun-filled September weekend.

 

Yours truly,

Mardy Hanlon-Stolte
