The event will feature a ribbon cutting grand opening ceremony on Thursday, 10/7 6:00pm at Centennial Park where Mayor Bill Seitter will "cut the honorary horn of cheese", followed by a petting zoo for kids, bring your own t-shirt and decorate for the Cheesiest T (prize), the Cutest Dog Contest (prize), Touch the Truck, Poster Award Ceremony (awards) and Pictures with Cheezy!

Friday, Oct 8th and Sat, Oct 9th will see the historical Armory filled with 50+ Vendors, Main Street with Vendors, Oasis Church filled with Vendors & Indian Tacos, Food Trucks, Live Music, Wine/Beer tent, Bubble Stilt Man, Quilt Show, Cheese Tasting, Cheese Food Contest, A-Z Petting Zoo, Inflatables, Kids Carnival, Cheese Booths, TLC Dancers, Bounce House, Jelly Roll Contest, Central Plains Dancers Street Performers, Family Dance Party, Huge Parade, the Great Rat Race, Horse and Carriage Rides, and lots more!
