Blogfest 2016 set for Saturday

Here's proof that Blogfest brings all sorts of outlooks and political beliefs together. Tony Stewart, a long-time human-rights activist and former NIC instructor, and conservative Duane Rasmussen are shown in an intense conversation at Blogfest 2014. Blogfest 2016 will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday at Fort Ground Grill.

Mayor Steve Widmyer tells Huckleberries Online that it's all systems go for Blogfest 2016 from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday at his Fort Ground Grill, the long-time home of Blogfest. The Spokesman-Review will provide the usual meal fare: pulled pork, mac-n-cheese, cole slaw, cookies & pop. The Grill will provide alcoholic beverages for a price. This year's Blogfest, of course, will feature the long-anticipated reveal of The Bard of Sherman Avenue. I'll introduce him around 3 p.m. after my customary short talk. Blogfest is open to all commenters, bloggers and even blurkers in good standing.
