Raymond Harvest Festival - Saturday, August 27, 2011

Raymond hosted the 42nd Annual Harvest Festival on Saturday, August 27, 2011. The day was filled with lots of fun family-friendly activities, so we're glad you joined us to see why Everybody Loves Raymond!

 

The Harvest Festival kicked off at 7:00 a.m. with the Dad's Belgian Waffle feed followed by the 11th Annual "Run Around Raymond" 5k race. The Start/Finish Line for both races was at MACCRAY East Elementary School. The 5K (USA Track & Field Nationally Certified - #MN-02019-RR) was run on a beautiful grass course that winds around Hawk Creek Country Club (HCCC) and through Raymond’s scenic nature trail, finishing up on pavement. There was one water station near the 2 mile mark. The mile course (primarily grass) also ran near the HCCC golf course. For more Information: contact Kevin or Bonnie Hauser at 320-967-4774 or bkhauser@willmar.com.

A Craft & Flea Market was set up downtown starting at 9:00 a.m. At the Community Center, the Raymond Garden Club hosted the Harvest Fest Garden Show & Market. First through third place ribbons were awarded in each category - with a Grand Prize overall and a People's Choice Award. There were also categories for flower arranging and best display of fruits and vegetables.

Also scheduled for the day was an Antique Tractor Display, a Co-ed Volleyball Tournament, a Kids Pedal Tractor Pull, Kids Games, a Petting Zoo with farm animals, Face Painting, Inflatables, and a Goat Milking Contest. The Grand Parade began at 1:00 p.m., and featured local floats, local businesses, and lots of candy. The Miss Raymond Queen Coronation followed at the Christian Reformed Church. There was also a Rock Wall, BINGO, and Outdoor Songfest held behind the Fire Hall.
