Fast Forward
Things to do next week and next month
NEXT WEEK
Pits: Have a sweet time in downtown Clarksville at the Johnson County Peach Festival, July 19-21. Expect music, a street dance, competitions, contests, a peach cobbler bake-off, races and a cardboard boat regatta. General admission is free but some activities may have fees. Visit jocopeachfest.com.
NEXT MONTH
Purchases: School starts in August and supply-shopping families can take advantage of the annual sales tax holiday weekend starting at 12:01 a.m. Aug. 4 and ending at 11:59 p.m. Aug. 5. Various supplies, materials and clothing — not all of which is necessarily school-related — will be taxfree across the state. Visit www.dfa.arkansas.gov.
