Elburn Days kicks off with parade
The 88th Elburn Days got underway Friday night with its annual parade down Main Street.
The late summer festival, which continues Saturday and Sunday, blends agriculture-related activities such as 4-H judging and a tractor pull with carnival rides, entertainment, a craft show and a mud volleyball tournament.
Visitors can also enjoy bingo, a petting zoo, a charity race, dance performances and a beer garden. Musical performers include Stroker Red, Hillbilly Rockstarz and Josh Thompson Saturday, and Kashmir and Hi Infidelity Sunday.
On Saturday, guests can park at the Metra station and take a shuttle to the festival grounds.
