Thanks for helping make fest successful

Posted October 14, 2023 5:00 am

On behalf of the Blocktoberfest 2023 Planning Committee, we thank the entire Glenview community for yet another successful event.

Blocktoberfest requires a villagewide effort. We depend on volunteers for planning and staffing. Village government provides police, fire and public works services. Our vendors are all local and based downtown. Our Glenview business sponsors pay the bills to make the party happen. And, of course, we thank the thousands of Glenview residents who attend the fest. A special thanks is due our food and drink vendors.

There would be no Blocktoberfest without village government. The Glenview Police and Fire Departments along with Public Works and village staff provided their usual expertise that allowed for a safe and festive environment for all to enjoy.

Blocktoberfest is volunteer driven. It takes almost 100 hard-working volunteers to make Blocktoberfest happen. We are so grateful to all our supporters and look forward to Blocktoberfest 2024.

Linda Felter, President

Friends of Downtown Glenview
