Thank you to all the volunteers that work so hard to make this event happen and thank you to the entire community for supporting the Harvest Festival of Onawa, Iowa!
FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS… THANK YOU!
What an incredible Onawa Harvest Festival! We truly had one heck of a GREASE LIGHTNIN’ good time!
There are simply not enough words to express how grateful we are for this community and everyone who came together to make this weekend so special.
To our community — THANK YOU for showing up, bringing your families, supporting our events, shopping our vendors, enjoying the food, cheering everyone on, and filling the festival with laughter, smiles, and memories.
To our vendors and food trucks — thank you for choosing to spend your weekend with us. You brought so much variety, talent, amazing food, and fun to our festival!
To every business, organization, sponsor, and individual who donated — THANK YOU. Whether you donated money, prizes, auction items, supplies, your time, or your talents, please know that every single contribution mattered. Your generosity helps us continue doing things for our community.
To our volunteers — we could NEVER do this without you. From the people everyone sees to the ones working quietly behind the scenes, setting up, cleaning up, running from one place to another, answering questions, helping vendors, and jumping in wherever needed… you are appreciated more than you know.
And a HUGE thank you to the Onawa Harvest Festival Committee!
These individuals don't just show up the weekend of the festival. They work ALL YEAR LONG planning, organizing, making phone calls, finding sponsors, lining up entertainment, solving problems, and putting countless hours into making this event happen.
You truly put on one heck of a GREASE LIGHTNIN’ time!
It takes a village to put something like this together, and we are incredibly blessed to have a community that continues to show up and support one another.
Every vendor.
Every donation.
Every sponsor.
Every volunteer.
Every spectator.
Every family.
Every person who shared a post, invited a friend, bought something, participated in an event, or simply came out and enjoyed the weekend…
YOU were a part of making the Onawa Harvest Festival special.
Thank you for supporting our festival.
