Burr Oak hosts annual Heritage Festival

St. Joseph County’s smallest municipality will take its turn to host an annual community festival this weekend.
The eighth Burr Oak Heritage Festival begins this evening and concludes with a community worship service Sunday at Church Park.
Organizers said the event kicks off with the return of “Brats and Bingo in the Big Tent” starting at 6 o’clock tonight, while a beer tent and live music will be at Mama Mia’s Pizza Friday and Saturday.
Friday’s activities include an antique tractor and wheat-threshing machine, a variety show and the River Country Has Talent performance.
Saturday’s highlights center on a parade, inflatables, a corn hole tournament, mud volleyball and a fireworks display at 10 p.m.
