A winning time at Batavia’s Windmill City Festival
A few rainstorms didn’t entirely dampen the fun at Batavia’s annual Windmill City Festival. The three-day festival was held on Friday to Sunday along the riverwalk in downtown Batavia.
In addition to live music, there was a carnival on Houston Street, yard games, golf challenge, Big Wheels and Tricycle Races, a craft fair and more.
