O Fallon, MO Is Holding It's 28th Annual Heritage & Freedom Fest

O Fallon, MO Is Holding It's 28th Annual Heritage & Freedom Fest

On July 3rd and 4th at Ozzie Smith Sports Complex.  There will be a full line up of entertainment during the two days of festivities.  This year's event will feature national headline music, family entertainment, carnival rides and a midway, free kids' activities, fireworks and much more.

On Thursday July 3rd country band Emerson Drive will highlight the first night of celebration when they take the stage at 9:00pm.  Remember, Emerson Drive was recently nominated for American Country Music's Top Vocal Group award?  They will be bringing their high-energy show to the center stage on the opening night.  Did I mention that up and coming Nashville country musician, Jeff Allen will open for Emerson Drive at 7:00pm.

Once the music is over stay around the midway and watch a Spectacular fireworks display at 10:15pm.

Check out this line up on Friday July 4th on the main stage see:

  • 12:30 - 1:30 then 2:00 - 3:00  Local rockers Joe Dirt  will take the main stage
  • 4:00 - 5:15  International recording artists Big Head Todd & the Monsters doing their brand of laid-back blues based rock
  • 6:15 - 7:30  Hard rockers Candlebox will spice up things
  • 8:30 - 9:45 Alternative rock group Gin Blossoms will close out the night's music with their brand of pop alternative rock.

Then the festival will conclude with a world-class fireworks display at 9:45pm.

There will be a lot of things for the family in addition to the music.  Both days of the festival offer a variety of family friendly activities, including carnival rides, a kids' area and entertainers.  The festival's second stage will feature Mark Preston's comedy Safari, which includes exotic birds, audience participation and may even give children in the audience a chance to star in the show.  There will be more things to do and for that information please visit www.heritageandfreedomfest.com

SEE YOU AT THE FESTIVAL!

Look at all of those trees, Where's da House?

Have you ever thought about curb appeal?

We always talk about making sure the property is staged and always do our part to make sure that the home has a delightful interior.  This is a good thing and should be a focal point for improvement when needed.  But, I have a question about curb appeal.  I have been out on an number of BPO's in the last two weeks and the bank is always asking for a front pic, side pic, street pic, and address verification pic.  Here are two homes in two completely different areas of the county.  I like shaded lots, some have a lot of character but, when they hide the front of the house or you can't even find the address I think that this is an extreme.

 

What do you think?  Should the prospective homebuyer be able to at least see the front of the home?  Should we suggest that the trees be trimmed to improve the homes curb appeal?  Or do we wait and see what the feedback is and then address what could be a problem?
