Making all the festivals better?
EVENTUALLY, all festivals start out very good and as they gain popularity PROFESSIONAL vendors take over and turn it into a junk show. I have had experience with this happening and The Villages MUST screen EVERY vendor, EVERY year so there is a balance of mostly individual, personal wares & food and not all large professional vendors showing up and taking over. This is difficult to do, also having ONE major event, as indicated before, in ALL the squares at the same time would thin out the traffic as well. Commercialism kills the personal, unique events, ALL the time! (IMO)
Let the criticism begin....
