Celebrate Palmer

Celebrate Palmer is a fun and festive community event that brings neighbors together to recognize the people and places that make Palmer shine. Residents show off their green thumbs in the Yard Beautification Contest, while local shops compete in the Business Beautification Contest—both showcasing the pride and creativity within city limits. Highlights include the presentation of community honors like Citizen of the Year, a free picnic featuring hot dogs and locally grown vegetables, and classic outdoor games for the kids. It’s a hometown celebration full of local flavor, friendly competition, and small-town spirit.
