McDonough’s annual Geranium Festival, a spring mainstay for more than 40 years, has been postponed from its original May 16 date and is now scheduled for Sept. 19.
A notice was posted Sunday afternoon by a representative of the McDonough Lions Club, the festival’s chief sponsor, on its Facebook page. The decision was made “with much discussion and respect for public safety,” according to the statement.
Last year’s Geranium Festival featured more than 400 booths covering the square and reaching out along the adjacent streets, offering arts and crafts as well as food. Thousands of people came out for the day, and the McDonough Lions Club raised $30,000 for various charitable endeavors.
