Event Coordinator Report
From: Diane Millington
The Davison DDA is working to make sure there's something to do in Downtown Davison all Summer long. Even with the Main Street Makeover going on Downtown there's lots to do!
The FARMER'S MARKET continues every Friday in Shopper's Alley with the many food vendors, crafters and more. Check out the New Vendors that come every week with homemade products and crafts too. The entertainment is a mix of live bands and DJ's that everyone has loved in the past and maybe a new one or two. The Farmer's Market season is every Friday from July 5th to September 13 starting at 9:30 am till 4:00 pm. Play the fun Scavenger Hunt word game with a Twist and other games to win valuable prizes. The Scavenger Hunt Grand Prize will be drawn on the last Friday at the market, valued at over $200.00. Shop Downtown, show us your receipt and you could win prizes too.

Don't Forget MOVIE NIGHT. This year the Davison DDA has again joined with the staff at PKSA to bring these Family friendly animated movies to Downtown Davison. These movies are brought to the community through the wonderful sponsors and the great work from the PKSA Karate School staff with their equipment, Will Davis and New Thought Movement.
It's FREE to the public and the proceeds from the concessions go to help those in need at the Holidays. Bring your blankets and chairs and enjoy the movies. The season will run now through August 23rd, weather permitting. Watch for the movie listings on the website and in the local papers.
Remember the movie that was filmed on Main St? Watch for that to be coming out soon. "Monsters On Main Street" was filmed last year in Downtown Davison with local extras and some Movie Stars. The movie will hit the local theaters before too long. We will give out that information as we know it, but watch for listings or announcements in the local papers for more details.
Plans are ongoing for the Davison PUMPKIN FESTIVAL OCTOBER 11th & 12th. We are looking to bring new events along with the ones everyone loves! One new event will add a whole new dimension to Pumpkin Festival, so watch for updates on the website. We are currently looking for the many sponsors and Community support it takes to make this event happen. Want to be a Sponsor? Check out the forms and help support the 24th Annual Pumpkin Festival. Volunteers are always welcome to help out. Give us a call or e-mail me at texdimi@yahoo.com for more information.
Our Christmas plans are also being made so save the date Saturday December 7 when the Elves once again return to Downtown Davison. Santa was so pleased with the help from the Davison Community last year that he has designated Davison as a "Training Camp" for the Elves in Training ( EIT). Watch for more information on these and other events on the website and in the local papers.
