Sheldon, Iowa — Sheldon’s annual Celebration Days will be held this weekend, and organizers say this year’s celebration is bigger and better than ever, after having to cancel last year’s event due to the pandemic.
Sheldon Chamber Director Shantel Oostra tells us Celebration Days begins Thursday evening.
Oostra tells us about something new this year, a Downtown Block Party, that will take place Friday afternoon.
She says another new feature this year will be a performance by the Judd Hoos Band. The group will be performing in the City Park Saturday night.
