Thursday, July 31, 2008 — The streets of Millsberry were filled with excitement - not to mention people -this past Saturday, during the first annual Millsberry SummerFest.

A year and a half in the making, SummerFest was created by Mayor Trumble to welcome new citizens, and to celebrate the mid-point of summer.

"I wanted to bring everyone together to share in some town spirit and, well, these sort of things are always a lot of fun."

"I thought it seemed like a great opportunity for the community," commented the Mayor during the street festival.

From Tania's Hair Salon to the Grocery Store to Tony "Tee-Ray's" Recording Studio, virtually every part of Millsberry was represented at SummerFest - no stone left unturned.

"It's great to see such a wide turnout," said Tee-Ray as he spun tunes on his turntable.

"I always like to see a lot of people around when I'm spinning. Makes for a better party, and better dancing. After all, the free act of rhythmic expression is best put to use in large groups."

Tony "Tee-Ray" is best known for his hit single, "It's Time to Move," which he recorded at his very own Millsberry Recording Studio.

If you're feeling inspired, go there yourself to lay down some tracks. And, while you're there, get your own customized stereo.

Another big hit at the Millsberry Summer Fest was the Tricks, Toys, & Games kiosk. They were showcasing limited edition skate gear. Just what you need to hit the Peabody Park half-pipe and tear it up.
