Yellow River Festival Begins Today

The annual Yellow River Festival opens today in River Park Square in Plymouth. It all begins at 10 a.m. with a full lineup of entertainment, food, music and living history.

If you see a person dressed in clothing that may look like he or she stepped out of the 1800s or early 1900s, don’t be afraid to stop them and ask about their role at the festival. Several volunteers will be portraying historic people and they want to tell you their history.

Several reenactments are scheduled during the event including events happening during World War II.

The organizers of the Yellow River Festival highlight a Marshall County community every year. This year, historic information specific to the Town of Argos will be featured.

The festival is open until 6 p.m. and will resume tomorrow with an on-site non-denominational church service at 9:30 a.m. with regular features beginning at 10 a.m. The festival closes tomorrow at 3 p.m.
