There are simply not enough words to express how grateful I am tonight. ❤️🌽
First and foremost, THANK YOU to every single volunteer. This event could not have happened without each and every one of you. From planning, setting up, registering participants, working color stations, cheering everyone on, and cleaning up—you made tonight possible. It truly takes a village, and I am so incredibly thankful to be part of one as amazing as ours.
To our generous sponsors...thank you. I know you are asked to support countless organizations and events throughout the year, and the fact that you continue to choose us and invest in our community means more than you'll ever know. Your generosity helps create memories that families will cherish for years to come.
A special thank you to the Swanton Bands for kicking off the evening with such incredible energy! Seeing and hearing our talented students perform before the Color Run made the event even more special. Thank you to the band members and directors for taking the time to be part of our community celebration!
A huge shout-out to DJ Jerry and Vince - VC the MC You both saw the pure panic on my face when that first streak of lightning lit up the sky. Instead of letting the weather dampen the fun, you turned up the music, kept the energy high, and reminded everyone what this event is all about. Watching kids and adults alike laugh, dance, and play in the rain like they were kids again was absolutely magical.
And finally, THANK YOU to everyone who came out to support the Swanton Corn Festival Color Run. Whether you ran, walked, danced, got covered in color, or simply cheered others on, you made tonight unforgettable. I hope you had just as much fun as I did getting colorful together as a community.
Swanton, you continue to amaze me. Thank you for proving once again that when our community comes together, there's nothing we can't accomplish. 💜🌽🎉
