The Vermilion Chamber of Commerce invites everyone to join in the festivities and help make this year’s Woollybear Festival the best ever in honor of Dick Goddard. This annual event not only celebrates the whimsical Woollybear caterpillar but also brings the community together, fostering a spirit of joy and camaraderie. “Dick Goddard’s passion for the Woollybear Festival, his love for the 'four-foots', and the communities he reached through Fox 8 for many years were truly unparalleled,” said Sandra Coe, Executive Director of the Vermilion Chamber of Commerce. “We are committed to keeping his legacy alive and making the 52nd annual festival a fitting tribute to his memory.” Mark your calendars and prepare for a day of Woollybear fun on Sunday, September 29th, 2024.
