The Town of Lyerly is reminding vendors that applications are still being accepted for this year’s Down Home Day celebration, scheduled for Saturday, September 26, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m.

Vendor spaces are $15 each. Anyone interested in participating should comment only on the Town of Lyerly’s Facebook post, send a private message to the official Lyerly, Georgia Facebook page or to Sally Kerce, or call Lyerly Town Hall at 706-895-2611.

Town officials are also warning vendors to be alert for online scammers. Last year, individuals impersonated event organizers on Facebook and attempted to collect $150 for vendor spaces through fraudulent payment requests.

Officials emphasize do not send money to anyone claiming to represent the event through Facebook comments or messages unless you are communicating directly with the official Lyerly, Georgia page or Sally Kerce.
