Cowboys and cowgirls of all ages are dusting off their boots and saddling up for the start of Screven County's 60th Livestock Festival. The Diamond Anniversary celebration began last weekend with the crowning of the new reigning queen, Sydney Wilkinson, who will preside over the remaining festivities. The festival will pick up speed on Saturday with the BBQ Grill-off Competition and an afternoon of entertainment at the Sylvania Amphitheater.
