 Every summer, the community of Lake George pools its resources and puts on an old-fashioned festival that is all based around one special fruit. Over the weekend, thousands flock to the small Minnesota town for the annual Blueberry Festival. Spectators were able to enjoy three days of vendors, music and activities. Over the past couple of years, the festival has seen growth in the amount of vendors and spectators. Community members say the draw is the fact that it's a simple old-fashioned festival. Lake George is what communities and towns used to be and still should be, and we haven't let the rest of the world change us. This is a small town. It's a town where people work hard and they're sincere and we support each other and help each other out, and that's the way life should be. The Blueberry Festival wrapped up Sunday afternoon with the annual Blueberry Festival Parade.
