🏃‍♂️🌽 We need YOUR help to make the Sweet Corn Festival 5K a success! Each year it takes around 70 volunteers to make this fun, safe, and memorable for our runners and walkers. Our biggest need is intersection workers on Saturday morning to help keep the route safe. We’re also looking for help with packet pickup that morning. Sign up to volunteer and be part of one of Adel’s favorite traditions!
