This past Saturday, from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m., the Downtown Swanton DORA (Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area), was filled to near capacity as the Swanton Chamber of Commerce hosted its first Block Party of 2025 sponsored by Benfield Wines and Hub’s Swantucky Pub.  Entertaining the record crowd with a mix of rock, soul and blues music was Shane Piasecki and the Lone Wolf Hippies, performing from the open garage doors of Benfield’s banquet room.

With moderate temperatures and no threat of rain, it was fun-filled evening for adults as well as children.  Benfield’s and Hub’s were serving adult beverages and there were three food trucks (Hot Dogs 2 Go, Benny’s Lonchaeria, Cheat Day) to satisfy anyone’s appetite.  There was a giant bouncy house, corn hole games and footballs and rubber balls being tossed around in the grassy areas.  The big scoop of the evening was soft opening of Swanton’s newest ice cream shop, The Spot-Swanton, located on the corner of N. Main Street and Zeiter Way.

There are three more Block Parties scheduled this summer (Saturday – July 19, Saturday – August 16, Friday – September 12).  If you would like more information on the events, please contact Delray Busch, Executive Director, Swanton Area Chamber of Commerce swantoncc@gmail.com | 419-265-0102/419-826-1941 or visit swantonareacoc.com.
