🍂 Happy Thanksgiving from the Sandborn Fall Festival! 🍂

We’re thankful for this amazing community, our volunteers, our vendors, and everyone who shows up year after year to make our little town shine.

Enjoy the day with your loved ones — we’re already excited for next year! 🧡

Today, we honor the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed so that small towns like ours can celebrate freedom together year after year.
Our festivals, parades, and community gatherings are possible because of those who stood guard over liberty — from the battlefields of the Revolution to the front lines of today.

Sandborn is home to many veterans and military families, and we are proud to celebrate them not just today, but always.
Their courage reminds us that the heart of America beats strongest in hometowns like ours — where faith, family, and freedom still matter most.

May God bless every veteran and their family, and may His favor continue to rest on this great nation.

🇺🇸 “One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.” – Psalm 145:4

🌟✨ A BIG THANK YOU ✨🌟

As I sit here reflecting on the whirlwind that was the Sandborn Fall Festival, my heart is overflowing with gratitude. What an incredible weekend! From start to finish, this community came alive with laughter, music, food, fellowship, and the joy of simply being together.

To EVERYONE who played a part — whether you helped set up, tore down, worked a booth, cheered at the ball diamond, parked cars, decorated, hauled tables, or simply showed up to support — THANK YOU. 🙏 You are the reason this festival was such a success.

To those who made sure I ate and drank water (especially after donating blood on Sunday 😅), your kindness kept me going more than you know. To the ones who stepped in quietly to do the little things, or the big things, without ever needing recognition — THANK YOU. I won’t try to name names because I’d be afraid of forgetting someone, and truly, every single person mattered.

One of the biggest thank-yous goes upward — to God, for blessing me with the ability to plan, think, and organize the way I do. I know it’s not by my own strength that this comes together, but by His hand guiding the way.

And finally, to my husband, Steve — my right hand through all of it. Thank you for being my steady, my calm, and my partner in every way. I couldn’t do this without you. 💛

This festival was more than just an event — it was a picture of what happens when a community shows up for each other. From vendors and volunteers to families and friends, together we created something beautiful.

From a very tired but very appreciative coordinator: thank you, Sandborn. You’ve once again proven what “small town, big heart” really means. 🍂✨

Much love,
Renee Schopmeyer
