logo for Murphy Maize DaysMaize Days are fastly approaching in the city of Murphy, Texas. The festivities begin on Friday, September 25th and launch a two day event. They are held on the grounds surrounding the city municipal complex located off of N. Murphy Road.

Murphy was once a farming community with corn fields plentiful. Because of its history, the city selected the name Maize Days to represent the festival. It came about due to the city's desire to recognize its 50th anniversary with the festival designed as a part of that celebration. It was such an overwhelming success with the citizens that the festival now known as Maize Days has continued as an annual event every year thereafter.

People of all ages can find something to entertain and delight them during the two days of activities. This year is the launch of the 5K Run sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. Some of the other festivities include Karaoke Corn Idol, Corn Spittin contest, Corny Joke contest, a Kidz Zone, live music and fireworks. For more detailed information see the Murphy Maize Days website to plan your fun.

In conjunction with the festivities, Market Day will be happening with the local vendors and businesses representing their wares and services. These booths will be located along the walkway in front of city hall and open Saturday, September 26th from 10 am until 6 pm. I will be participating at the MRC, Murphy Realty Connection along with other local Realtors. Come on by and say hello.

That's a pretty cool history of Maize Days, Teral and it sounds like a really fun "festival".  I sure do love Fall and all the events that happen this time of year!
