Annual Events
Ashby Legacy Fund, a community-led foundation, strives to make Ashby, Minnesota, a special place to live for generations to come. This includes our focus on fostering community via a variety of annual events that take place in the community each year.
Appreciation Days
Ashby’s annual festival is held the third weekend in July and is rooted in a long tradition of area businesses expressing their “appreciation” to their community and customers. Over the years, this has grown to a weekend full of free activities for the whole family sponsored by the ALF, including an outdoor movie in the park, 5K/10K race, kiddie parade, live music and lunch in the park, petting zoo, large inflatable kids’ activities, and parade. There are also many events hosted by other area organizations and businesses during this fun-packed weekend.
