Wamego celebrated its annual Tulip Festival over the weekend.

With over 200 vendors on hand at Wamego’s City Park, festival goers were treated to plenty of activities, live music flowers. Tulip Festival is one of three major community events held in Wamego annually and doesn’t happen without a number of community volunteers like Sarah McVay, who worked in the information booth, welcoming visitors and telling them what Tulip Festival had to offer.

The festival was marred by the actions of two children who tore out between 25 to 50 tulips and threw them into the pond, there were still plenty of tulips on hand and the flower beds were popular photo spots.
