The Town of Bennett is excited to host the 11th annual Bennett Days Celebration. After 2020 presented new challenges to the Bennett Community, the Town is looking forward to returning to our traditional Bennett Days event.
Bennett Days will take place on Saturday, September 11, 2021. The event will kick off with the “Stronger Together” parade through Old Town at 10 a.m. Immediately following the parade there will be a vendor street fair, family fun zone, giveaways, a food truck rally and live entertainment until 4 p.m.
The Town Board of Trustees will serve a free dinner at 4:30 p.m. followed by the “Bennett Days Bull Games” bull riding event at 6 p.m. The evening will conclude with a firework show displayed in partnership with the Bennett-Watkins Fire Rescue.
For the first time at Bennett Days, the Town and the Board of Trustees will be hosting a toy drive to support the Holiday Help program. Those who bring a new unwrapped toy or give a cash donation will have the opportunity to win additional prizes.
The Town of Bennett works in partnership with the Bennett Arts Council, Bennett Parks and Recreation District, the I-70 Chamber of Commerce, the Bennett School District, the Bennett-Watkins Fire Protection District, VFW Post #8449, Anythink Libraries, the Corridor Creative Arts League, the Bennett Community Food Bank and our generous sponsors to host the annual event.
The Town promises to host a safe event for the community by implementing and adhering to all current health and safety protocols.
