The ODC is a not-for profit organization

Creek Days weekend is always a great time to catch up with old friends or enjoy a summer weekend with family, but it’s also a great opportunity to support your community.

Since 1999, the Odebolt Development Corporation has donated more than $35,000 to local projects such as the Odebolt Community Center, the pool, cemetery, museum, tennis courts, the Odebolt sign project, the O-A Education Foundation, as well as many local emergency services and youth groups.

All of these funds were raised at Creek Days, so when you buy your Creek Days t-shirts or tickets to Creek Days events, when you donate your money to support Creek Days or donate your time to volunteer at Creek Days, you are contributing to your community!

THANK YOU
TO ALL VOLUNTEERS AND HELPERS FOR THE 2013 ODEBOLT CREEK DAYS! 

The ODC would like to thank everyone who made this year’s “Kickin It Old School” Creek Days a success. Thank you to all who volunteered to work; to those who generously contributed a monetary donation to sponsor t-shirts; to those who loaned us equipment, picnic tables, bleachers, or property for our events; to the fire department, to the City of Odebolt for their support and cooperation; to the Odebolt Community Center board for use of the beautiful facilities; to those whom were not on the Odebolt Development Corporation but helped set up and tear down , and to odebolt.net and local newspapers for all of their help with publicity.

We want to thank the Odebolt Betterment Committee for putting on the breakfast this year. We want to also thank all the vendors who helped come and make our celebration a little more festive! Our parade coordinator Lisa Pierce, and our beer garden coordinators Ron & Jenny Sorensen also deserve a very special thank you; they make Creek Days possible. Finally, thanks to everyone who attended; we hope to see you all back next year!

The Odebolt Development Corporation would like to invite anyone in the community interested in joining our team to feel free to do so. You can contact Janet Hoefling or Jade Godbersen. Many current members have completed their final year on the board. Without board members Creek Days won’t be possible. Please consider joining the team today as they prepare for Creek Days 2014!

Thank you again,
    The Odebolt Development Corporation
