It has been almost a week since our favorite hometown celebration, Edgerton To***co Heritage Days and I am still decompressing a little & overwhelmed by the fantastic turnout for all of the activities.
And boy, did you all show up and show out!
To***co Days has always held a special place in my heart. It is more than just a festival. It is part of who we are. It brings back memories, reconnects old friends, welcomes new faces and reminds us why this little hometown means so much to so many people.
And I’m just going to say it—this was the best yet!!
Everywhere I looked, people were smiling, businesses were busy and our streets were filled with people simply enjoying being together. Seeing so many organizations, businesses and volunteers working side by side to create an entire weekend of fun was pretty amazing.
We are a small town with a very big heart. Yes, parking isn't always easy, but we walk, bike, carpool, share rides and figure it out because we know thousands of people are coming to town to enjoy this festival right along with us. It may get a little crowded, but honestly, that is part of To***co Days.
For more than 50 years, To***co Heritage Days has been one of the best weekends in Edgerton. There is always enough room at the table. When we support one another instead of competing with one another, everyone wins. I truly believe that is what made this weekend so special.
Edgerton To***co Heritage Days, The To***co Days Car Show Edgerton Wi, To***co Days Pinup Contest, the To***co City Market, the Pie Social at Edgerton Community Outreach the Edgerton VFW Post 2708 Food Stand, Friends of the Edgerton Public Library book sale, The Michael McGuire Softball Tournament, Albion Tigers Baseball & all the numerous other organizations I don't mean to leave out. Most of all the volunteers who gave their time—you made this weekend happen!!
I am lucky enough to work alongside an amazing group of people who have worked incredibly hard to bring this festival back to its former glory and somehow make it even better. I have seen firsthand the planning, long days, last-minute changes, problem-solving and countless volunteer hours that go into a weekend like this. They are Rock Stars!!
Most people never see all of that behind-the-scenes work, but they certainly saw the results.
This weekend reminded me of what can happen when a hometown comes together. We supported local businesses, celebrated our traditions, welcomed thousands of visitors and showed everyone what makes Edgerton so special.
What a weekend!
