Rain dampens the mood in Onton

Hay Days Cruise-In rescheduled for Sat. at 4:00 p.m.

            Rain brought festivities at the 20th annual Onton Hay Days celebration to a halt on Friday night, with everything but the Hay Days dinner being canceled. But the show must go on.
          "We’ve had around 80 cars agree to come back tomorrow," said Lisa Preston, one of the event’s organizers. "The Cruise-In will start around 4:00 p.m. tomorrow. We’re
not trying to take anybody away from any of the other cruise-ins, but this event only happens once a year, so we still want to have it."
          Preston said that even if a car owner cannot come to the rescheduled event, if they were already registered they can stop by on Saturday and still pick up their t-shirt.
          Other events on the agenda for Saturday include the 1st ever Onton Hay Days 5K at 8:00 a.m. and the parade at noon, followed by a Duck Calling Contest featuring products from Knight and Hale. The Miss Onton pageant at 5:30 p.m. will include over 20 contestants, with the winner earning the right to compete in the Miss Kentucky Pageant as Miss Webster County.
