So what better way to mark the occasion than a look back through our archives?
The people of Corby have gone above and beyond over the years with their wacky fundraising efforts, from taking on Brass Monkey runs and fire walks to wolfing down belly-busting breakfasts.
There have also been more traditional events such as summer fetes and Easter fayres to look back on.
Have a look through our gallery to see if you recognise anyone!
