Dryden to Celebrate the Dairy Industry June 9

Join in the festivities to celebrate the 35th Dryden Dairy Day on Saturday, June 9.

Start the day at 9:30 by watching the parade down Main Street and pick your favorite float that best represents this year’s theme: “Dairy – Your Everyday Protein.” Registration for the parade is now open at drydendairyday.org.

After the parade, Montgomery Park transforms into a destination filled with fun for the whole family. Games, bounce house, crafts, demonstrations, live animals to pet, and a display of farm tractors and equipment are just a few of the great activities this year. Plus live entertainment by Dryden School Music Groups as well as Fall Creek Brass Band and Delta Mike Shaw Band.
Admission is free and free parking is available at the Village Municipal Parking Lot and Dryden Fire Hall.
