The last weekend of September means that it’s time for the 31st annual Emmett Harvest Festival Street Fair! I’m your Emmett neighborhood reporter Alexander Huddleston speaking with locals about the importance of bringing folks to downtown Emmett!
“We think it’s a good place to be and hang out,” exclaimed one kid.
Downtown Emmett’s Main Street is filled with fun this weekend as the Chamber of Commerce throws its 31st annual Harvest Festival Street Fair, hoping to boost foot traffic in the quiet downtown area.
Chamber member Tina Hefley said, “It is just a give-back to our local businesses down here.”
“A lot of people don’t realize we are here. Sometimes even locals don’t know. We sell a lot of unique things so that customers don’t have to drive over the hill to buy gifts,” explained Hen House owner Tamara Walker.
