BOURBON, Ind. – Four months after a devastating EF1 tornado ripped through the Bourbon community, the small town is coming together for one of its most beloved traditions, Summerfest.
ABC57’s Jackie Bauer revisited the event's coordinator, Lonny Berkey, to check in on rebuilding efforts and what to expect from this year's Summerfest.
“I think the community is really eager to come out…just hang out and enjoy some good food and some good entertainment, and just do what small towns do,” said Berkey.
