Bean Hole Days a Success!

The skies were blue, the sun was bright, and it was a beautiful day on Wednesday for the culmination of Bean Hole Days in Pequot Lakes! There were a number of food and craft vendors in the park, even ranging to the northern half of Trailside. There were thousands who turned out for the un-burying of the beans, and a free bowl of the secret recipe. Folks waiting on line for the late-morning serving were treated to a fun presentation of "Donna Mae" with the By the Way Players. After reigning Bean Hole Queen Ione Miller passed the scepter on to this year's roylaty, Everett and JoAnne Johnson (who, too, were selected due in no small part to their remarkable public service to the community of the Pequot Lakes area), 2450 people enjoyed the fruits of the ground, according to Sue Galligan of the Chamber. Folks were treated to another performance in the afternoon with the "By the Way Players" and shopped all afternoon-long. A wonderful time was had by all, and we--here at K-Lakes--are already looking forward to next year!
