Palatine Jaycees Regrettably Cancel 2020 Hometown Fest

Hometown Fest is our chapter's largest community fundraiser. Profits from Hometown Fest allow us to give out scholarships to high school students, holiday shopping sprees to needy families, community grants to local organizations, and support the Palatine Township with some of their events, just to name a few. The fact that we are unable to raise money for these projects at Hometown Fest weighs heavily on us.

Our chapter will have several fundraisers coming up to help us support these projects. We hope that you will consider participating in these fundraisers in place of the money you may have spent at Hometown Fest. Please check our website and social media sites for more information over the next few weeks. If you are interested in donating directly to the chapter, all money donated will go towards Community projects, as our Hometown Fest profits have always gone to. If you are able, please visit https://palatinejaycees.org/hometown-fest/donate/.

If you have submitted a payment to the Jaycees to participate in Hometown Fest, we will contact you soon regarding your options.

We thank you for your understanding and support of the Palatine Jaycees over the years, and we hope to see you at Hometown Fest next year.
