Winters Youth Day was founded in 1933 by Reverend Charles P. Barkman and Dr. A.M. Herron (high school principal) to teach young people about the aspects of city government.
Each year the young people of Winters take over the elected offices of the city. After a week of hands-on experience with their city counterparts, everyone is honored with the annual Youth Day Parade and a day full of fun.
Despite being canceled due to World War II and COVID-19, the Youth Day tradition has always returned strong and proud.
