The Education Foundation of Downers Grove District 58 presented the village’s 10th annual Oktoberfest, where residents got to experience a traditional German atmosphere right in their hometown.

While enjoying beer and brats, music groups spanning genres from classic rock to traditional German polka serenaded attendees.

The event also included some celebrity sightings, including Jason Scheff (Chicago), Jay DeMarcus (Rascal Flatts), Steve Augeri (Journey), and more.

The younger crowd enjoyed the Family Fun Zone with face painting, temporary tattoos, a dunk tank, and crafts. Proceeds from the event benefit District 58 Schools in Downers Grove.
