Exciting 2016
Annie Oakley Festival
The Annie Oakley Festival Committee is working diligently to plan an
exciting and FREE 2016 festival at York Woods. They have a full range
of entertainment booked including the highly anticipated Annie Oakley
Festival Western Arts Showcase full of knife throwing, whip artistry,
and variety show. There will also be musical entertainment throughout
the festival. The Darke County Civic Theater will once again be
presenting the annual melodrama, and the annual car show will also
return. On Saturday July 30th the parade through Greenville will take
center stage, and Sunday July 31st will be family day full of fun, free
activities of all ages. To see a full schedule, check out the Annie
Oakley Festival website at www.annieoakleyfestival.org.
The annual Annie Oakley Festival is one of the oldest festivals in
Darke County and continues to provide quality family entertainment for
free because of their generous sponsors. Contributions from businesses,
organization, and individuals who believe in preserving and promoting
the memory of Darke County’s famous daughter, Annie Oakley make this
festival possible. For more information about becoming a sponsor or to
contribute please contact JoEllenMelling at mellings@embarqmail.com or

Greenville, Ohio 45331.
The festival committee is still looking for individuals who would like
to help plan and produce this event. The next meeting will be
April 13th at 7:00 at Shawnee Prairie Preserve Nature Center.
