The Tallassee SummerFest was visible for miles.
During the day a hot air balloon served as a beacon to the fun happening at Tallassee City Hall. Fireworks from the lake lit up the sky by night. There were pony rides, vendors and more.
“It has been a great turnout,” Tallassee Chamber of Commerce executive director Jerry Cunningham said. “This has turned out well.”
To combat the heat a large cooling station was in the middle of the vendors. The tent provided shade and misting fans cooled the temperature.
There was a watermelon eating contest for children, baking contest and pet costume contest.
Adults shopped and visited booths of several different organizations. Children got snow cones and played on inflatables including a water slide.
