Great Sponsors are at the heart of the Johnston Peach Blossom Festival
web
posted March 30, 2009
JOHNSTON – Let’s face it: Festivals are
fun. That’s no different at the Johnston, S.C., Peach Blossom Festival,
which will be held May 2, 2009. But underlying all those good
times are sponsors who make it possible to keep the Festival free or
low-cost for patrons. In addition, it helps raise additional
money that can be used to help the Johnston area.
This year’s Johnston Peach Blossom Festival Corporate Sponsors are
Edgefield County Hospital, First Citizens Bank, IGA, SCE&G and SRP
Federal Credit Union.
The theme for this year’s Johnston Peach Blossom Festival is “A
Johnston Homecoming.”
Last year, thousands of patrons descended on Johnston to enjoy the day
set aside to honor the peach industry, which has been so important in
the development of the area. Each year, the Town goes all out
with the Festival to remind citizens about the peach industry and to
open its arms to visitors.
The popular Festival is taking applications for individuals,
organizations or businesses interested in being a part of event in
these areas:
• Food vendors: Frank Davis, (803) 275-4786, 7
Heritage Trace, Johnston, SC 29832, lfrankdavis@bellsouth.net.
• Arts and Crafts: John Timmerman, (803) 637-6866;
334 Woodridge Road, Edgefield, SC 29824, johntimm@bellsouth.net.
• Parade: Roger Lamb, (803) 275-0438, 505 Roland

• Program Book Ads: Debra Aston, (803) 275-2345, 416
Lee St., Suite 2, Johnston, SC 29832, astond@bellsouth.net.
In addition to the areas listed above, the Festival also has a Friday,
May 1, street dance in downtown Johnston, designed especially for
families. On the evening of May 2, the Festival concludes with a
popular dance for 21 year olds and up.
For more information on the Festival, please contact Debra Aston, (803)
275-2345, or Tyra Miller, (803) 275-3264.
The Johnston Development Corporation, a non-profit volunteer
organization, sponsors the Festival. The Corporation works to aid
the community in areas such as economic development, education,
recreation, historic preservation, tourism, scientific and cultural
opportunities, and continued promotion of Johnston.
EdgefieldDaily.com provides free advertisement to the Festival as a
Public Service.
