A few Old Fashion Days in Goldston have been lost to bad weather, but 2022 dawned clear and bright and turned out to be a wonderful day for a festival.

John the Balloon Man and Karen the Hula Hoop lady brought their fun and frivolity and helped people enjoy the day.

Thank you to the Goldston Lions Club for inviting us back, and hope to see everyone next year!

The 2015 Goldston Old Fashion Day opened to light rain that was supposed to stop, but didn’t.
