The Top Dog Hog...Over The Years!

The Chairpersons of Hog Fest are a unique breed of individual.  These people, like everyone on the Hog Festival Committee - a volunteer - take it upon themselves to be out there at the front for every question, every complaint and every thing that might go right...or wrong...with a celebration that involves thousands of hours, people and dollars. Here then is a listing, year by year, of the people to date who make us proud. They freely give of their time to make sure every Labor Day weekend is a special weekend in Kewanee!
