Main Street Vero Beach Welcomes You! 2008 Hibiscus Festival a Huge Success Sunshine, throngs of people, happy faces, families playing in the park and lots of colorful flowers bloomed at this year’s Hibiscus Festival. An estimated five thousand or more people jammed downtown Vero Beach to enjoy all the festivities, from the sold-out Pancake Breakfast, to continuous street-wide live entertainment, over 100 booths, 160 5K runners, the most delicious farmers market ever, 300 children enjoying the kids activities, and 5 hours of area children singing and dancing at the Rotary Club’s Salute to Youth stage. The 2008 Festival witnessed the largest crowds, sold the most booth space and had the most runners participating, while introducing three new successful facets to the already exciting line-up that included a Coin Show, Highwayman Art Show and post festival community street party. Organizers are already planning for 2009 when they hope to introduce even more expanded features to the popular and much anticipated city-wide Festival of the year. To become a member of the planning committee, or to participate in next year’s event, call Chair Milt Thomas at 567-2897, or Beverly Paris at 234-4412.
