Mount Pulaski Mayor Matt Bobell delivered a fantastic opening speech
on Friday, September 13, 2019, to kick off the Mount Pulaski Fall
Festival.
The square was filled with food vendors, craft vendors and
inflatable FUN!
The Kiddie Pageant took place on the steps of the courthouse this
year and was a perfect historical setting for the next generation of
“Hilltoppers” to make history.
The Hilltop Catering & Hilltop Club Grilled Chicken Dinner was a
huge success under the big tent on the square.
Kids of all ages had fun participating in the Lip Sync Battle.
The evening wrapped up with the band Brandy Kristin and the Revival
headlining the beer tent.

Antique Tractor Show and Chili Cook-off and Bake-Off just to name a few of the
