With sweat pouring off of nearly every brow of the folks crowded into the standing room only auditorium of Christ Episcopal Church, Kennedy Liederbach was crowned the 2023 Oil Heritage Festival Queen. The event, which normally takes place on Central Avenue plaza, was wisely moved inside as the skies opened up dumping copious amounts of water on the plaza. Jordan Montgomery was named runner-up.
Before that the festival was moving along smoothly. The kids' parade went off without a hitch and the plaza was filled with family activities. Mostly Brass entertained early on and Mitch Littler got in his set outside. With the clouds darkening everyone began packing up and other than a few wet tents getting put away most things were packed up before the rain.
The annual Flex ice cream social seemed to be a big hit with folks eating cream all over the plaza.

Also moved inside was Echo Valley who played through the Tornado warning sirens.
Below are more photos from Thursday evening at the festival.
