Festivity-goers can help their Fox River Valley community by bringing non-perishable food items on Sunday during the Festival Parade. These items will be collected by the Aurora Interfaith Food Pantry. 

Look for members of Our Savior Lutheran Church from Aurora who will be pushing shopping carts to collect the donations of food items. It couldn’t be more convenient!

The parade will begin at Webster and Main Street, traveling south to Watkins, over to River Street and from there north to Mill Street.  The review stand is located in front of the Village Hall at 200 N. River St.
