The goal of the Festival Committee
is to continuously beautify and
showcase the community in a way
that will allow its future to be
as bright and celebrated as its
past. Each year Heritage
Festival proceeds and donations
are reinvested into the community.
The Fieldale Heritage Festival
Committee was formed in
March of 2006 and is comprised of
Fieldale residents
past and present, parties interested
in the preservation and presentation
of local history, local businesses
and local government representatives.
The proceeds and donations the Committee
collects are reinvested into the
Fieldale community.
It is our focus to expand the offerings
of the festival each year, to add
at least one new permanent feature
to the Fieldale
community, and to help support the
Fieldale Community Center. The Center
is considered the heart and soul
of Fieldale and
opens its doors to us to host our
celebration and our planning sessions.
Our contribution to Fieldale
from the 2006 Festival, along with
donations from numerous people,
organizations and businesses, was
to add over thirty permanent banners
to the streets of Fieldale.
The banners display the logo of
the community and honor the people
who made Fieldale
such a wonderful place. Memorial
plaques are affixed below the banners.
The 2007 Festival contribution,
again along with generous donations,
financed the addition of a permanent
historical marker honoring the contributions
of Colonel George Waller.
The 2008 Festival was hard work
with great results. A thank you
message is HERE.
Thanks to all who made the 2009
Festival a great success!
