Once again this weekend, downtown Brookhaven welcomed thousandsof visitors for the 30th annual Ole Brook Festival.

Chamber of Commerce officials touted another successful eventthat casts Brookhaven in a positive light and adds sales taxdollars to city coffers.

The festival has had several homes throughout its 30-yearhistory.

A constant, though, has been the willingness of the manyvolunteers who work to make the festival a success. Their effortsare greatly appreciated, as they help Ole Brook live up to itsbilling as “Mississippi’s Premier Family Festival.”
