Parkville Towne Fair To Feature First Ever Beer Garden
Fair leadership recently secured a one-day liquor license to be able to serve beer at the Towne Fair.
It's a year for big changes at the long-running Parkville Towne Centre Fair.
First the Parkville Carney Business Professional Association, the group that organizes the 26-year-old festival, announced that the fair was being moved from Sunday to Saturday; now fair organizers have announced that for the first time ever the event will include a beer garden.
Preliminary discussions among organizers have suggested Lavender Avenue, a side street off Harford Road near Taylor Avenue, as the location for the beer garden, according to Michael Tull, the business association's president.
