A new way for local businesses to make a meaningful difference is here. 🎉

For the first time, Pig on the Pond is offering two new sponsorship opportunities designed for businesses that want to support South Lake County students without committing to a three-day festival booth.

💙 Friend of the Festival: $1,000
💙 Festival Supporter: $500

Your sponsorship helps fund Project Scholars and provides meaningful recognition for your business. Because supporting Pig on the Pond is about more than having a presence at the festival. It is about investing in local students, treasured traditions, and a stronger community.

Help us keep this beloved tradition thriving for generations to come.

Maybe you came to Pig on the Pond as a kid, sticky hands full of fair food, chasing your friends between carnival rides while the smell of barbecue smoke filled the air. Now you're the one packing sunscreen and holding tiny hands as your own kids ride those same rides and beg for one more funnel cake.

That's the magic of Pig on the Pond. It's live music drifting over the pond while grandparents rock in lawn chairs. It's teenagers riding rides they swear they're too cool for. It's three generations of the same family showing up year after year because this weekend belongs to all of them.

We've been building these memories together for years, and we can't wait to make more with your family this April.

Here's to Adelaide, Abbigail, Isabella, and Shireen as they step into the 2026-27 school year, and to every one of our Pig on the Pond scholars heading back to campus this fall. New classes, new goals, new chapters- go get them.

This is exactly what Pig on the Pond is about. Not just a festival, but the doors it opens for students right here in our community long after the smoke clears and the tents come down. Every ticket, every sponsorship, every plate of barbecue helps make a school year like this possible, for our newest scholars and the ones still working toward that diploma.

Wishing all of our scholars, past and present, nothing but a great start this year. We're cheering you on.

We're excited to share that Pig on the Pond has been recognized with two FFEA Sunsational Awards! 🎉

Presented by the Florida Festivals and Events Association (FFEA), the Sunsational Awards recognize excellence in festival and event marketing, programming, and innovation across the state of Florida. To be recognized alongside so many outstanding events is truly an honor.

🥉 3rd Place – Brochure for our Pig on the Pond Digital Guide

These awards are a celebration of what Pig on the Pond represents: a community event made possible through collaboration, creativity, and the dedication of so many people.

Thank you to our board of directors, committee members, volunteers, sponsors, vendors, community partners, and attendees for helping make Pig on the Pond a success year after year. A special thank you to EventFest for being an incredible partner, and to the event planning and marketing team at New Heights Communication for bringing the vision to life.

This is what the future looks like! 🎓✨

Project Scholars recipient Gia-Marie Tim recently completed an internship with The Home Depot’s corporate headquarters in Atlanta, working within the supply chain finance organization. Even more exciting, she received a full-time offer to return after graduation as a financial analyst!

Gia-Marie will graduate from Florida State University in May 2027 and move to Atlanta to begin her career in finance and business analytics.

Thanks in part to the support of Project Scholars, Gia-Marie has been able to focus on her education, pursue meaningful professional opportunities and prepare for her future without taking out student loans.

We are incredibly proud of Gia-Marie and honored to be a small part of her journey. Congratulations on this well-earned opportunity! We cannot wait to see what comes next.

When you support Pig on the Pond, you help make success stories like Gia-Marie’s possible. 🐷🎓

Pig on the Pond has changed a lot over the years. New vendors, new activities, new faces. But the heart of it hasn't moved an inch: this event has always been about supporting South Lake County students.

Sponsorship applications for the 2027 Pig on the Pond are now open.

If your business wants to be part of sending a local student to college, reach out and we'll walk you through the packet.

There's something pretty special about an event that's been around long enough to become a family tradition. Pig on the Pond has watched kids grow up, move away, come back, and now bring their own children through the same gates.
