Yes, it is a big weekend coming up August 16, 17 & 18, 2013 in Hamlet, IN. The Yellowstone Trail Festival is combined with Hamlet's Sesquicentennial celebration. Hamlet is 150 years old this year and it was 101 years ago that the Yellowstone Trail was planned. The sale of automobiles was really gaining a foothold in America in the early 1900s. People were in love with the car. But few good roads were available to travel between towns. A plan was put together to connect all of the best existing roads "from Plymouth Rock to Puget Sound." The Yellowstone Trail was born.
Come, join the town of Hamlet as it celebrates these historic anniversaries at the Starke County 4-H Fair Grounds. Go to the Yellowstone Trail Festival website, then click on "schedule" to see the many events. --- http://yellowstonetrailfest.com/Home.html.
