Thanks to all for great Hoedown Festival

Dear Editor,

I would like to take this time to thank Chief Joe Fike and officers for their work at the Phil Campbell Hoedown Festival – outstanding job. Thanks to Sheriff Shannon Oliver for the use of the mobile command center and also thanks to the deputies and reserves.

The Park and Recreation board did a wonderful job putting the festival and entertainment together.

Thanks to all for your hard work in the heat.

Sincerely,

Michael McQuary

Phil Campbell City Councilman
