WILTON WEENIE DAYS
The inaugural Wilton Weenie Days takes place this weekend, in lieu of the now-defunct Wilton Fest, and it’s predecessor Wilton Wood Turtle Days.
The annual village celebration was moved from it’s traditional date during the first weekend of August to the second weekend of July to coincide with the tractor pull. The weekend of activity includes youth baseball, softball, and volleyball tournaments, as well as fireworks, a parade, and the Wilton Sportsmen’s Club tractor pull capping off the weekend.
