Scott City’s inaugural Renaissance Festival, the first such event in western Kansas in recent memory, is already sparking buzz among the locals, said organizer Lindsey Singley.
“I know people that have specifically bought costumes this year for this,” said Singley, executive director of the Scott City Area Chamber of Commerce.
The festival will run from 1 to 10 p.m. Friday and 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday at the Scott County Fairgrounds in Scott City, a companion event to the city’s participation in June Jaunt celebrations along K-96 highway. The fair is the culmination of what Singley and others have wanted to organize for years, Singley said, and is ideally the beginning of larger and increasingly ambitious festivals in the near future.
