Main Street is back to normal!

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate another amazing year of Solon Beef Days! You made this weekend unforgettable.

A special shoutout to the incredible community volunteers who plan, coordinate, and run every part of this event. From months of preparation to the last trash bag hauled away, this celebration is powered 100% by the heart and hustle of volunteers who love Solon.

Your support goes further than you know.

Beef Days isn’t just a weekend of fun—it’s a fundraiser that gives back directly to our community. Funds raised are reinvested into Solon in countless ways like:
🌳 Planting trees
⚾️ Supporting school programs and athletics with equipment and tournament travel
💦 Helping fund the special community projects like the splash pad
🏟 Or even donating to Parks & Rec for improvements like new dugouts

… and so much more.

Solon is a special place, and you help keep it that way.

From all of us—thank you for showing up, giving back, and celebrating community. Until next year! 🐄💛
