But resilience ruled: tents, grit, and vendor camaraderie kept spirits high. New VFW leadership sparks optimism for future growth, even as the event still trails Labor Day’s foot traffic. Despite the downpour, vendors are already plotting the next big one—Labor Day, August 29–September 1—and the community’s love for the market remains unshaken.
