Porter Township Heritage Days

06/15/2025

🌧️🎉 Just Like That… It’s a Wrap! 🎉🌧️

Our 9th Annual Heritage Days Spring Festival has officially (and sloppily) come to an end — and what a day it was! 😅 This was our first year having to really compete with Mother Nature, and while she definitely kept us on our toes, we still managed to have an incredible time.

Because of the rain, I didn’t get to snap many photos — so if you took any, PLEASE share them with us! We’d absolutely love to see your moments from the festival. 📸💛

From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to every single person who braved the weather and came out to support the Porter Township Heritage Committee and this event. Your presence and support mean everything.

A huge shoutout to:
👏 Our amazing sponsors for your generous donations
👏 All the craft and food vendors for sticking it out with us
👏 The volunteers and committee members for showing up and showing out — rain or shine!

Big or small, your contributions help make this festival what it is. We truly couldn’t do it without you. You’re all amazing. 💛

Now… it’s time to kick off the boots, dry off, and relax! ☕🌧️

🎉 THE FESTIVAL IS STILL ON — RAIN OR SHINE! ☔️🌈

Yep, it’s raining… and yep, the park is VERY wet. But are we letting that stop us? No way! 💪

We’re embracing the puddles, the mud, and the good vibes — so grab your rain boots, your crew, and your best rainy-day attitude. 🌧️🕺

It’s going to be a soggy, silly, unforgettable kind of day — and we can’t wait to see you there! 💃🎶

Let’s dance in the rain together! 🌧️❤️
