Just a few more days. Our Gateway to the Delta Festival is merely days away: Oct. 14!
As our excitement builds, we don’t want to forget our little festival-goers.
We want to ensure that they have a KidsZone this year to keep them busy and that is packed with fun things for them to enjoy while mom and dad listen to music, eat from one of our many food trucks or shop at the many arts and crafts booths.
Bounce N Fun Events will provide our inflatables for the day. Our partners at the Ed and Becky Meek Foundation and Tallahatchie County Library will provide face painting, large yard games, crafts and even a “paint Scissors the pig” station.
Our petting zoo will again be provided by the Woods and Davis families. They love animals and share that they have always had numerous animals through the years. They will be bringing a host of animals including sheep, goats, rabbits and the cutest little pig.
Miss Wylee Sayle, Miss Teen DeSoto County, will again join us to help crown our pageant winners in the categories of Tiny Miss, Little Miss, Miss Teen Junior and Little Mr. Gateway. This pageant royalty will receive a prize package including crown, sash and free admission to KidsZone.
If you are thinking of entering your child or grandchild, please get your registration in as soon as possible. We will end registration at 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 6, to ensure that we have everyone in the lineup.
We will see you, and your little ones, at Gateway 2023 on Saturday, Oct. 14!
