The Pana Parks Revitalization Committee organized another successful Popcorn Festival at Kitchell Park.  The event consisted of live music, many contests and other fun activities, and plenty of popcorn all day long.  A storm system which initially threatened to impact the festival missed Pana well to the north.  However, attendees and organizers did have to contend with temperatures hot enough to warrant a heat advisory. 

Nicole Blodgett is with the Pana Parks Revitalization Committee.  She says a variety of activities and vendors for people of all ages ran thoughout the day.

More information on the Pana Popcorn Festival is available at their Facebook page.
