We do love our festivals, be they in honor of corn or strawberries or sauerkraut or potatoes ... wine or pork or poultry. We'll celebrate any kind of culture: Appalachian, Celtic, Hispanic, Shawnee and mixed — as in July's Cityfolk Festival, where everything goes.

Any reason, any animal, vegetable, mineral or dessert (there's a banana split festival in Wilmington) will do if there's a weekend and it's summertime.

If your neighborhood, group or community is planning a festival, let us know so we can share the details.

Send information (festival name, time, date, street address, cost, special activities, sponsoring organization, a publishable phone number, Web site address and anything else we should know) to GO! Festivals, c/o Melissa Bowman, Dayton Daily News, 1611 S. Main St., Dayton, OH 45409. Or send it by fax to (937) 225-2241 (attention: GO! Festivals) or by e-mail to events@DaytonDailyNews.com.

For faster, speedier submission go to daytondailynews.com/submitevents.

We need to receive your festival information by Monday, May 19.

Bazaars will not be included in these listings. GO! reserves the right to decide which events meet its festival criteria.

GO! wants to receive county fair information, too. Please send that in by May 23.
