On Saturday, Aumsville has a festival for you
The annual Aumsville Corn Festival is on Saturday with a parade, other events and, of course, hot buttered corn. Get the details HERE and check out our Events Calendar below for other goings-on that you might want to hit.
Have an event to tell the community about?
Get your event in front of Salem. Who can post to our Events Calendar? Just about anyone. We ask that you provide a fair description of the event and the cost, if any. Government agencies can – and should – list their public meetings. Nonprofits can list fundraising events open to the community. And clubs and groups can enter events that are open to the public.
In other words, if it’s happening, and it’s public, you can list. There is no cost for our base listing and you have options to buy even more attention: SUBMIT EVENT
