Things to consider while enjoying Old Home Week!

Be sure to bring chairs, umbrellas, and small tents for sun coverage as shade is limited at most venues. Remember to carry reusable cups and bottles, and pack a bag to take your own waste, which will assist volunteers and staff with cleanup efforts. It is advisable to walk to the venues or utilize the shuttle service since parking for entertainers and accessible spots will be extremely limited. Support eco-friendliness by purchasing food and drinks in reusable containers, opting for glass or aluminum, and steering clear of plastics.
