Saturday was Party Day in Craig! We're talking about Craig's Annual Caddis Festival, this year celebrating it's 17th year running! Activities began at 3:30 with the Caddis Parade featuring Scott Blackman of the Applestem Corn Maze and Kristi Blazer of the Missouri River Law Office. There was a best barbecue competition with local grill masters from The Trout Shop, Crosscurrents, Headhunters, as well as others. Music filled the air from the Nick Crawford Band, performing at the Logjam in front of Izaak's, and Trevor Murphy at the Craig Taphouse. There were silent auctions, live auctions, a raffle at the Craig Bar, plus Montana-Made products being sold by vendors and artisans lining the street. And the weather cooperated; it was a beautiful day! Proceeds from the Festival were to benefit the Craig Volunteer Fire Department, with some going to the Craig Sewer District.
