Magnificent food draws thousands to annual festival

About 4,000 people attended the 19th Annual Magnificent Midlothian Food Festival at The Boulders office park last week (right), raising more than $80,000 for local charities. The event was sponsored by the Brandermill, Midlothian, Bon Air, Huguenot Trail and Chester Rotary clubs. Attendees dined on beef tenderloin, barbecue, cheesecake and other tasty food offerings, including salmon grilled by Brad Bailey (inset right). Michael Medlin and his son, Jack, attended the event (above).
