"Block Bash is something we host every year in September. This will be our 13th year, and its French Lick’s biggest festival. We we fly out all of our chainsaw guys and they carve all weekend long, and then we auction off all of the carvings. It’s one of the biggest chainsaw festivals you can come to see in this part of America."
