On a comfortably warm Saturday evening in the Downtown Swanton DORA (Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area), the Swanton Area Chamber of Commerce hosted its first Block Party of the summer season. Benfield Wines and Hub’s were happy to serve a long list of beverages and food trucks, Hot Dogs 2 Go and Madeline’s Smokehouse, were on hand to satisfy everyone’s appetite. With “Kall Me Kendall” rocking the crowd of an estimated 300 people, it was a perfect time to kick back with family and friends and enjoy a great night in Smalltown America as we approach our nation’s 250th birthday.
As explained by the Chamber’s Executive Director, Delray Busch, “These events are presented by the Swanton Area Chamber of Commerce, Benfield Wines, and Hub’s. A huge thank you to Benfield Wines and Hub’s for being such strong partners and helping make these downtown nights possible. I also want to thank our 2026 Block Party sponsors: Skye’s Heating & Cooling for sponsoring the bounce house in memory of his beautiful daughter, Skyler, Swanton Corn Festival for their major sponsorship and making these events possible, Roth Plumbing, MSS Mastin Site Services, Tri County Block & Brick, and Tony at Ballas Chevrolet. Because of their support, we are able to keep this event free for the community and bring people downtown to support our local businesses. We are so grateful for everyone who shows up, sponsors, volunteers, performs, serves food, and helps make Swanton feel like home.”
Four more 2026 Block Parties remain, July 18th, August 15th, September 12th and October 3rd. All dates are on Saturday and the times are from 6:00 PM until 9:00 PM.
