A couple of good ole boys from Hazzard County will be in Smithville next weekend.
Sonny Shroyer (Enos) and Chris Hensel (Jeb Stewart Duke), cast members from the popular 1970s-80’s television series “The Dukes of Hazzard” will be the special guests during the 2nd annual New Life Fall Fest to be held Saturday, October 6 from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the New Life Connection Center on South Congress Boulevard.
The day’s activities will begin with a “Duke’s” Parade from the High School to the New Life Connection Center starting at 9 a.m. Shroyer and Hensel will then sign autographs and pose for pictures.
The New Life Fall Fest will also feature a car show with trophies and awards to be given. Approximately 25 vendors will showcase products and information inside and outside the center. There will be music throughout the day from various church groups. A kids area will be set up with games, pony rides, face painting and more. Register for a free bicycle to be given away. Concessions will be available. And get an up close look at a Life Flight helicopter, ambulance, fire engine and police car.
It’s sure to be a fun filled day for the entire family.
