Our History of Fun
'Rock the Block' is celebrated around the feast of the Sacred Heart; a time for the whole community to gather, right in the heart of town.
Previously, the main city-wide celebration in Colwich was known as 'Heritage Festival' or 'Heritage Days,' usually held in late summer, sometimes commemorating special anniversary years for the parish. In the late 60's, the Colwich Booster Club held a Memorial Day Parade.
