PLYMOUTH, Ind. -- If it's Labor Day Weekend in Plymouth, that means only one thing: The Marshall County Blueberry Festival is back.
ABC57 is a proud sponsor of the 59th annual event expected to attract 500,000 people to Centennial Park this weekend.
And to celebrate, ABC57 Anchor Brian Conybeare gives us a peek behind the scenes at the massive set up inside the 44-acre park, the community teamwork needed to make it happen (and the number of port-a-johns needed too!) - plus, a look back at the history of the festival, the beloved mascot Blueberry Hank and how it all got started with some local firefighters having fun back in 1966.
