❤️🤍💙 THANK YOU, MORRISTOWN! 💙🤍❤️

As we wrap up the 78th Annual Morristown Derby Days, our hearts are full.

This weekend simply would not have been possible without the incredible support of our community. Thank you to everyone who attended, volunteered, participated, sponsored, and cheered us on throughout the weekend.

A special thank you goes out to:
⭐ Our amazing sponsors
⭐ The Town of Morristown
⭐ Morristown Area Chamber of Commerce
⭐ Boys & Girls Club
⭐ Morristown Scouts
⭐ Morristown Youth Football
⭐ Morristown Fire Department
⭐ Morristown Police Department
⭐ American Legion
⭐ The Long Branch
⭐ Hometown Hop On Shuttle
⭐ Premier Pyro
⭐ Every vendor, food vendor, entertainer, parade participant, and community partner

And most importantly…

❤️ Our volunteers.

There are simply not enough words to express our gratitude. From months of planning behind the scenes to setting up, directing traffic, helping vendors, coordinating events, cleaning up, and doing countless jobs that often go unnoticed…you are the reason Derby Days happens. This celebration is built on volunteer hearts, and we are forever grateful for each and every one of you.

We know this year’s move from downtown to Community Park was a big change, and we truly appreciate everyone who embraced it with an open mind. Change can be challenging, but it also creates opportunities to grow, try new ideas, and build something even better for the future.

Were there things we’d like to improve? Absolutely. Every event teaches us something new, and we are already making notes for next year. Growth comes from listening, learning, and continuing to evolve.

But overall… WOW.

Seeing the park filled with families all day long, watching kids laugh and play, hearing the music, seeing neighbors reconnect, and experiencing the incredible turnout reminded us exactly why we do this. The consistent crowds throughout the day truly exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better community to celebrate with.

We’re already looking forward to bringing Derby Days back to Community Park next year with even more improvements and new ideas.

📋 Stay tuned! Our community surveys and QR codes will be posted soon. We genuinely want to hear from you…what you loved, what could be better, and ideas you’d like to see in the future. Your honest feedback will help shape the 79th Annual Morristown Derby Days.

Thank you for believing in our community, supporting local events, and helping keep this tradition alive.

Here’s to another unforgettable Derby Days—and an even better one next year! ❤️🤍💙
