Putting on an event the size of the Urbana Sweetcorn Festival is no small feat and it couldn’t be done without the help of hundreds of volunteers. Our community is incredible when it comes to giving of their time. And this past weekend was no exception. Around 600 people came out to help with the corn cooking and serving, beer and margarita stands, ticket sales, recycling, sanitation crew, ice deliveries, and even photo opportunities with Corny the mascot. The Urbana Business Association staff is truly thankful for all of our volunteers and we would like to say a heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you!! We couldn’t have done it without you!
