Hog Roast Dinner

On Saturday of our event, we provide a hog roast dinner from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm.
• The recommended donation for dinner is $12 per plate.
• Hogs are cooked on site.
• Corn on the cob, beans and a variety of salads are also included in the meal.

Show and Shine Car & Bike Show

In 2017, we implemented a Show and Shine Car & Bike Show to our Saturday festivities.  JJ's 2nd & 3rd Annual Show and Shine's proved to be a success as well.  We had many cars and motorcycle show up for the show, and there were many vendors that were gracious enough to donate door prizes. Professional Photos were taken of every vehicle entered courtesy of G-LOC Digital Photography and photo packages offered with all proceeds going to Hospice.

Nightly Entertainment

We provide entertainment on Friday and Saturday nights to hype up the atmosphere! To date, Uptown Entertainment and DJ Service has provided the Friday night musical entertainment with his amazing light and sound setup. On Saturday's, we bring in a local band to liven up the crowd and rattle the rafters with a variety of classic and current songs. As always, a dance floor is set up and all are welcome to come out and have a great time. No matter if your 1 or 100 there are songs for all to enjoy!

Memorial Balloon Release

In 2018 we added a new way to honor those who have gone from our world and onto the next. We hosted our first Memorial Balloon release which allowed people to purchase a balloon and  write a special message or name of a loved one onto the balloon. After the hog roast we all gathered outside for a short prayer and moment of silence as the balloons ascended into the clouds. We look forward to continuing this tradition next year. ​
