From the cute to the outlandish, the Hog Days Parade is worth watching
for the "pig" value. People in pig costumes, vehicles disguised as
moving pigs and everything in between. And, of course, queens, fire
trucks, old cars and marching bands from all over! It's fun to just sit
and watch which is what several thousand people end up doing along the
one mile parade route that proceeds from one end of town to the other.
Award winners in this past year's parade included: People's National
Bank, winner of the Ambassador's Cup...Cookie's Gaming Parlor, winner of
the Sweepstakes Award...Petersen Healthcare, winner in the commercial
division...The Kewanee YMCA, winner of the Not for
Profit Award...The State Bank of Toulon, the most original award
winner...and the Bakersville 2022 float, winner of the Katie
Johnson Spirit Award.
