It was the perfect day to have the Gretna Hot Spot Festival this past Saturday, July 15th. While it was a little gloomy in the morning, the sun broke through just before lunch and decided to stay for the festival.

Even though it was kind of gloomy during the morning, many people still decided that they wanted pancakes so they came out and enjoyed the free pancake breakfast that was being served before the parade.

When the sun broke through many families came out and enjoyed the family activities that were available. There were inflatables, a kiddie carnival, a kiddie train, a petting zoo, and many more activities for all ages.

The Gretna Hot Spot was a success once again and people are already looking forward to next year’s Hot Spot.
