They say that all good things must come to an end…. The last few things from the food stand will return to storage in the next few days, the park will return to its normal function for the next 359 days…. We want to thank our food & beaverage vendors Robert "Chick" Fritz, Inc. - Belleville, Donnewald Distributing Company, and Hamilos Brothers Inspected meats. Our entertainment Those Two, Blue Marlin, The Heaton Brothers Band & Shotgun Creek Band and carnival vendor American Banner Amusement.
We would like to to extend a special thank you to our friends at Maryville Police Department - Illinois ,Maryville Police Association, Maryville Village Fire Department & IAFF Local 4531 - Maryville, Troy, Hamel for their hard work this weekend and a big thank you to The Village of Maryville for allowing us to host our homecoming every year.
Last, we want to give a HUGE thank you to you!!! Without you, this homecoming would not be what it is! Whether you attended the parade, listened to the bands, ate food, drank beverages, rode rides or helped in our stands, we simply cannot do it without you!!!
August will be the Maryville Homecoming Association first meeting post 2025 homecoming. At this meeting we will discuss what went good, what went bad, and what we could improve on for next year. We encourage everyone to give your input below on what you liked, didn’t like, what you would like to see changed, and any ideas we could bring next year!
Again, we could not do this event every year without you, and for that, we simply cannot thank you enough. The funds from this years homecoming will go towards purchasing goods and equipment to support the fire department, that means your contributions help us give back to the community!
July 10 & 11, 2026 will be here before we know it! We hope to see you back again next year for another weekend of making memories with your family, catching up with friends, and enjoying summer! We encourage any local businesses, organizations or groups who wish to sponsor or participate in next years homecoming to reach out to us early and we can discuss options!
For now, it’s back to the drawing board for next year, we hope you had as much fun attending as we did hosting, and we look forward to seeing you July 10, 2026 & July 11, 2026 for the 2026 Maryville Homecoming!
