Ida Grove’s four-day Heritage Days celebration starts at 3 p.m. on Thursday, June 26, with an ice cream social at Horn Memorial Hospital.
“That will be followed by the farmer’s market (at Godbersen Park from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.), and then we’ll do our traditional Little Miss and Mr. Heritage Days, followed by our free movie at the King Theatre,” said Stephanie Mulstay, who is a member of the Ida Grove Heritage Days Committee.
In the culmination of Holstein’s 2025 Kinderfest, festivities kicked off on Thursday with a free showing of the film “Time Bandits” at the Holstein State Theatre.
“Through the Decades” was the theme of this year’s event.
Activities ramped up on Friday night with food trucks, a car/tractor show, inflatables, cornhole tournaments, a beer garden and live music drew a good crowd to 2nd St. on both sides of Main St.
Saturday turned out to be a hot day for Creek Days in Odebolt, but a huge crowd showed up anyway.
After Friday’s fireworks and pool party, Saturday was packed with activities, including a fun run, pancake breakfast, tractor and car shows, activities at the museums, a big vendor show, lots of food options, a lengthy parade, a bags tournament, bingo and a little bit of music toward the end.
