ROCHELLE — There was great turnout for this year’s Lincoln Highway Heritage Festival this past weekend — all three days, according to festival committee chair Lisa Chrisco.
“Everything went off beautifully. It was a beautiful weekend for a perfect festival,” Chrisco said.
The festival kicked off Friday night with carnival rides and the Little Miss Peanut contest and was followed by music from Back Country Roads.
“The number in attendance has increased,” Chrisco said. “On Friday night there were hardly any chairs left [in the main stage area] at the end of the night.”
Attendance remained steady, and maybe even higher than normal on Saturday with many events taking place.
The Hub City Cruisers hosted the car and motorcycle show downtown from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. and carnival rides, food and craft vendors and main stage entertainment kept visitors busy.
