A very special “Thank You” goes towards sponsors that assist in funding the Homecoming entertainment.  “Thank You” to all the volunteers in our local organizations that help make it all work. You know you deserve a pat on the back!  And lastly – thanks to all of you who came and enjoyed Monticello’s Homecoming Weekend!!
