Summerfest in 2022 included a parade through Royal City, as well as food, games and music. But that may be a thing of the past unless folks step up to make this year’s event happen.

Summerfest at risk
ROYAL CITY — Last July, the streets of Royal City were filled with fun as the town’s annual Summerfest brought out parades, concerts, games and food. This year, it may not happen. “Nobody wants to volunteer anymore,” said Carly Smith, the chair of the Summerfest committee. “It can’t be run by four people, and four people only,” Those four people – Smith, Tiffany Workinger, Sharon Chesterman and Sherrie Rodriguez – have been the entire committee for the last three years, Workinger said, and all have stepped down this year due to other obligations.
