Welcome To Kewanee Hog Days!

	Remember How Much Fun Summer Used To Be?  It Still Is! The Good Old Days...Are Still Here!

Remember when you used to go to the carnival and feel the rush of excitement as you tried the rides?  How about the fun of cotton candy? Or competing against your friends to see who was best at...anything! The magic has not gone away. It's all here every Labor Day weekend in Kewanee, Illinois, and it's called Hog Days!  It centers around the world's largest outdoor pork barbecue  and includes stage shows, events running day and night throughout the weekend, the largest parade in downstate Illinois and, oh yes, the carnival!  Just like you remember it.

Only now, instead of a few pork chops we serve over 30 thousand.  Instead of a kiddy ride or two we have rides for those not afraid of anything.  And even though we still see who has the longest pigtails, nowadays we also wallow it out in the mud volleyball competition or run  4 miles for the top prizes in, what else, the Hog Stampede!  And we've been doing it for more than 50 years!

Remember how much fun summer used to be?  Then come to Hog Days...because the good old days...Are Still Here!
