Since 2007, the town has hosted Stand By Me Day, a celebration of the 1986 coming-of-age film that was primarily shot in the city.
The Committee has been busy making plans and rounding up volunteers to bring you a full slate of fun! There will be guided walking tours, a fan forum with videos, 50’s car Cruise In, Food trucks, a visit from Ima Blueberry and, of course, a down and dirty Blueberry Pie Eating Contest.
Join the fun between 11:00 am and 5:00 pm at Library Park in beautiful Downtown Brownsville. Check here for more information.
