Alonsa has been home to many people over the past one hundred years, and this weekend commemorates it with the Alonsa Homecoming.
The Homecoming is an annual event for the town, and there's a lot going on in the celebrations.
Events for the celebration include Pow wow demos, Ukrainian Dances, live music, lawn mower races, group suppers and so much more.
Schedule of events out!!

Dana Thomspon, an event coordinator for the homecoming has been busy getting everything together but is excited to welcome people home.
"Over the years, a lot of people have left and went to the big centers and are raising their kids in different parts of the country. This is our chance this weekend to welcome people home and really hope welcome, create some memories, talk about the days gone by, and have the opportunity to socialize and remember the past."
be sure to pre-register ahead for the roast beef dinner Saturday night, as they have a limit of 300 seats for that event.
Thompson also wanted to mention that even if you haven't called Alonsa home, you're still welcome to come on out and enjoy the day.
The goal this weekend is for everyone to feel welcome and at home at the Alonsa Centennial celebration!
