About this year's fest, via the village website:

The Village of Montgomery partners with the Montgomery Foundation to offer a beer booth at Montgomery Fest. Anyone 21 years of age can enjoy a cold beer along with their favorite festival foods in the food court. All proceeds benefit the Montgomery Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that supports programs of education and community service.

A detailed schedule of events can be printed from the Village website and is also mailed to all residents with the August water bills. And in case you haven't ever been to Montgomery Fest, here's a video showing highlights from a recent Montgomery Fest.

Various levels of sponsorships are available for businesses, ranging from major sponsors to event sponsors to in-kind donations. This is a wonderful way to show your support for the community and showcase your business at the Fest. We would like to thank the 2018 Montgomery Fest Sponsors who make this event possible!
