Lemonade heritage sparks Bluefield Lemonade Day celebration

The Bluefield Chamber revived a long running stunt where lemonade is handed out on 90 degree days. It traces to former County Editor Steele who courted local business leaders to offer free hotel stays when the temperature hit 90. The tradition grew with Lemonade Lassies, press coverage, and annual events led by Marc Meachum.
