As we wrap up another incredible year of our favorite day of the year, FATHERS DAY! We want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to every single person who helped make this event possible.

❀️ THANK YOU ❀️

To our racers who came out to compete, have fun, and bring so much excitement to the day.

To our volunteers who gave their time, energy, and dedication behind the scenes and on event day.

To our local businesses, sponsors, vendors, and community partners who invested in this event and helped create an unforgettable experience.

To the employees of our local establishments who worked tirelessly throughout the event, serving guests, supporting visitors, and helping keep everything running smoothly.

To our spectators, families, friends, and supporters who lined the streets, cheered everyone on, and brought the incredible community spirit that makes this event so special.

To the countless individuals working behind the scenes before, during, and after the eventβ€”you may not always be seen, but your efforts are what make everything come together.

A very special thank you to our current Mayor, who not only supported this event from the beginning but also came out in person to show her support for our entire community. Your enthusiasm and commitment mean so much, and we are grateful for your leadership and encouragement.

We also want to recognize and thank all of the organizers from years past who started this event and carried it forward through the years. Because of your vision, dedication, and countless hours of work, we are able to continue enjoying this tradition year after year. We stand on the shoulders of those who came before us, and we are incredibly thankful for everything you have done to build and preserve this event.

Most importantly, thank you to our entire community. Events like this don’t happen because of one person or one groupβ€”they happen because an entire town comes together with pride, passion, and a willingness to help.

We are overwhelmed by the support, generosity, and enthusiasm shown by everyone involved. Seeing our community come together reminds us exactly why this event means so much to so many people.

And the best part? We’re already excited about next year!

The organizers are hard at work dreaming, planning, and looking ahead to make next year even bigger, better, faster, and more fun than ever before. We have some exciting ideas and additions in the works, and we can’t wait to share them with all of you.

Until then, thank you for making this year such a tremendous success. We couldn’t do it without you, and we are beyond grateful for each and every one of you.

See you next year! β€οΈπŸπŸŽ‰
