Businesses encouraged to ‘Tie Dye the Town’
This year’s Beatles at the Ridge festival has been set for Sept. 16 and 17 in downtown Walnut Ridge. As part of the festival activities, businesses are once again being encouraged to participate in Tie Dye the Town.
“Tie Dye the Town is an exciting way that local businesses can show their support and welcome visitors to the Beatles at the Ridge festival,” Gretchen Hunt, festival committee member, said.
The competition includes both an interior and exterior display division. Displays can have a Beatles theme or a Rock N Roll theme.
Businesses who would like to be judged for a chance to receive the traveling trophy as this year’s champion must register with the Chamber of Commerce Office at 886-3232 by Sept. 9.
Last year’s winners, Studio H for exterior display and The Times Dispatch for interior display, will present the trophies to this year’s winners.

Winners will be chosen by out-of-county judges and will be announced in the Sept. 14 issue of The Times Dispatch.
