If you love your divas and you love your celebrity impersonators, this is a show you simply should not miss. Catch "Divas: She's Every Woman" starring Bonnie Kilroe on Saturday, September 7 at 6pm in downtown Fayette (if inclement weather, the show will be in the Fayette Opera House). The show is free and open to the public, but don't forget your lawn chair. Following the show guests will have an opportunity to get their picture taken with one of Bonnie's celebrity's before the fireworks and sky lantern launch take place.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 2024 LOGO CONTEST WINNER

Congratulations to Kenzie Adkins, our 2024 Watermelon Days logo winner. Kenzie is a Kindergarten teacher at West Central School in Maynard (her alma mater!). She grew up in between Maynard and Fayette and attended Upper Iowa University for a year before finishing her degree at Buena Vista University.
Kenzie can’t wait for her daughter to experience her first Watermelon Days this year! Her favorite part about Watermelon Days is the community, university, business, and individuals all coming together to make lasting experiences and memories for all the generations in attendance!
Thanks for the "Sweet" logo, Kenzie! Mark your calendar for Fayette Watermelon Days 2024, The Sweetest Celebration, the weekend after Labor Day (Sept. 6-8).
