According to the Douglas County government website, the annual September Saturdays Festival is slated to delight locals with a duo of Saturdays packed with entertainment. On September 21 and September 28, the grounds of the Douglas County Courthouse will come alive from 11 AM to 5 PM.

The festival promises a family-friendly atmosphere brimming with live music and an array of vendors showcasing their unique goods. For the adrenaline seekers, exciting rides will be spinning visitors, not forgetting the gamut of prizes to be won that amp up the festival's appeal. Echoing through the courthouse square, live musical performances are expected to set the tone for two festive afternoons.
