The 2010 Foothills Fall Festival has been rescheduled for Oct. 8-10 due to election activities scheduled on the original dates.
2010 is an election year, and the early voting process will be held at the Blount County Courthouse from Oct. 13-28, 2010.
The festival was originally scheduled for Oct. 15-17 when early voting would be going on.
"While county officials graciously offered to work with us on scheduling and coordination, we felt that moving the dates was the best option for everyone in order to maintain the best schedule for early voting and to eliminate the conflicting traffic and parking issues around the courthouse that are necessary to operate the festival," said Jane Groff, Maryville event coordinator.
"We understand the need for many individuals and organizations in our community to schedule activities, vacations and functions with or around the festival and are eager to get the message about the festival dates."
