The fun is not over yet.

"Butch is reason that this festival is here, and for bringing everyone together." Recently deceased commissioner and Summer Fun Fest organizer Gary "Butch" Carey loved his community--and a good parade. Today Oglesby honored Gary for his hard work and dedication to the City of Oglesby. Thank you Gary for everything.
