All of our vendors and Especially everyone who come out to Freedom Fest. And Especially to all of our Sponsors, we couldn't do this without you.
Where did everyone come from? The farthest that I know of that I know of was Malcolm Collins all the way from the UK.
I made some notes for next year. For the most part this year went good, but like every year there was a few things that needs work.
We are plan to redo our sponsorship packet that will hopefully give our sponsors more bang for there buck.
The planning for Goreville FreedomFest 2026 is under way.
I got up a 5:15 am out of the house about 6:00 am and back home at about 10:30. It's after midnight now.
