Plans are well under way for the 2023 Corn Festival which will be held July 20 – 22, 2023. Please save the dates on your calendar and make plans to attend. OR better yet, make plans to volunteer. The festival committee had a difficult time this last July in finding persons or groups willing to volunteer their time to assist with many of the activities. So consider making this festival a success with your help. Of course, financial donations are always appreciated and this year, the committee is talking about making the Festival Friends recognized as sponsors of specific events or areas.

The General Election will be on Tuesday, November 8, 2022. The polling place for Warrensburg residents is at the Village Hall. Voting hours are from 6:00 am – 7:00 pm. If you aren’t already registered, you can do so anytime at the Macon County Clerk’s office or Driver’s License facility. If you have any questions, please contact the Macon County Clerk at 217.424.1333.
