☀️🎉⛱️ IT'S HERE…THE KICKOFF TO SUMMER IN PRINCETON, ILLINOIS! ☀️🎉⛱️

Good luck finding another town that packs this much fun into one Saturday!

🌽 Start your morning at the Princeton Farmers Market at Soldiers & Sailors Park. Week #2 is bursting with fresh flavors, familiar favorites, and new vendors ready to delight!

🏃 Then make your way to historic Main Street for the 2nd Annual Princeton Mile! Over 150 participants and counting, 10 elite runners competing for prize money, and athletes traveling from out of state make this an event you won't want to miss!

🏁 Be on Main Street by 10 AM to experience Princeton on foot, or join us to cheer on the racers! History may be made on historic Main as we chase the possibility of a SUB-4 MINUTE MILE! How cool is that?!

🦐 Then keep the party rolling into Shrimpfest at Rotary Park with Rotary Club of Princeton, IL with entertainment, family fun, famous shrimp boats, and even alligator on the menu!

🛍️ And while you're at it, shop 'til you drop at our annual Sidewalk Sales hosted by our fabulous Main Street retailers!

From market bags to racing flags…
From shrimp boats to shopping totes…
From elite runners to sidewalk stunners…

📍The place to be is Princeton, Illinois!

Where else can you experience so much in one day?

✨ OUR MILE IS OUR MAGIC ✨

🌳 LUNCH IN THE PARK UPDATE!🚨

🙄 Well, Mother Nature clearly woke up on the wrong side of the cloud today. 🌧️

☔️ Nice try but you're NOT washing away our fun! We refuse to let your soggy attitude rain on our parade…or our lunch! 💪

So we've officially moved the party indoors to the Prouty-Zearing Community Building from 11:00 am - 1:00 pm!

🍔 Lunch hosted by the awesome crew at the Youth Service Bureau of Illinois Valley
🍪 Sweet treats for the Bake Sale by The MomCo of Bureau County

You may have won the battle, Mother Nature, but you're not dragging the kick off weekend to summer in Princeton down the drain!
