Attendees can look forward to the lively parade, live musical performances each night, a variety of games, a baby show, and an impressive car show. For the younger attendees, there will be plenty of free inflatables to enjoy.
The 2025 Odon Old Settlers Grand Marshal is North Daviess Jr/Sr High School Jed Jerrels.
Music lovers are in for a treat with a lineup of local favorites taking the stage nightly. Scheduled to perform are Arianna Bartton & The Bourbon Britches, Falls City Boys, and Rosie & The Rockabillies, ensuring lively evenings for all.
