2015:
The 2015 All Cardinal Weekend held at the Opera House ended, as attendance declined to the level of being un-sustainable. After 2015, the weekend would continue in various ways and on Main Street and at the Downtown. The All-Cardinal Weekend materialized during the mid-1990's when a few classes of the late 1950's & early 1960's started gathering the 3rd weekend in July.
