🌹🎀 What a wonderful Roses & Ribbons Festival weekend! 🎀🌹

As our 2026 Rose Festival comes to a close, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this weekend so special.

Thank you to our volunteers, sponsors, vendors, entertainers, churches, organizations, committee members, and all of the community members who came out to participate. We'd also like to extend a special thank you to the North Mahaska School District and staff, the City of New Sharon, and the incredible team behind the Jace Race for their partnership and support throughout the weekend. From the parade and car show to the contests, food, games, music, and activities, it was a joy to see our community gathered together once again.

Before we officially wrap up the weekend, we'd love for you to join us for one final event:

✝️ Community Worship Service in the Park
🕕 Tonight at 6:00 PM
📍 City Park
🪑 Bring your lawn chair!

Hosted by the New Sharon Ministerial Alliance, this special evening is an opportunity for our community to come together in worship, fellowship, and gratitude for the many blessings we've shared throughout the weekend.

We hope to see you there as we close out another beautiful Rose Festival together. 🌹
