SWEETWATER-The second National Muscadine Festival was a huge success, according to the Sweetwater Merchants and Property Owners Association (SMPOA).

"I think the crowd doubled," SMPOA President Bryan Burchfield said during the recent SMPOA meeting at City Hall.

The festival began Friday, Sept. 28 at Tsali Notch Vineyard between Madisonville and Sweetwater and moved to downtown Sweetwater that night for entertainment and for a full day on Saturday. Burchfield said there were estimates that 7,000 to 8,000 came to the downtown.
