The University of Delaware Green will provide the perfect outdoor venue for local musicians and demonstration groups. A food court will have a variety of foods. Fine art and homemade crafts will be on display and for sale. A fine art and homemade craft competition will stir things up among area artists.

The children's area is always a big hit with scarecrow making and games, and community information booths and activities are supplied by a variety of local businesses and organizations. As usual, the bazaar and flea market area will be filled with attic treasures and unique surprises.

Main Street businesses and restaurants will offer dining and retail specials.

Those who plan to attend are asked to remember that pets are not comfortable in the heat, noise, and crowds of large events, so for their safety and the safety of those attending the event, please leave pets at home.

In case of inclement weather, Main Street merchant and dining specials will remain in effect. All other activities will be postponed until Sunday, Sept. 27. For weather related cancellations, call (302) 366-7147.

Sponsors for the event include the Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials and DuPont and DuPont Dow.
