Dundee’s Mayfly Festival made its triumphant return June 17. This is the first time the festival has come back since the Coronavirus era, to the delight of the community.

Hundreds and hundreds of friends and neighbors caught up, ate classic summer festival fare food, and played on a beautiful summer’s evening by the river as two rock n’ roll bands played.  Friday’s festivities featured two bands: Fool’s Fait and End of the Line: the Premier Allman Brothers Tribute Band. Saturday’s festivities will feature country music from the Jessie Campbell Band, followed by Crystal Bowersox.

“I’m having a great time. It’s good to have normal things happening again,” Dundee resident Shannon Scott said.

Bean bag toss games, and a series of games for children will still be available, Saturday; including a slide, bouncy castle, face painting, and a children’s craft corner. The Mayfly Festival is sponsored by the Dundee Area Business Association.

This is a breaking news story and will be updated on Monday.
