Waldo Rockin' Block Party

The Waldo Promotion/Program Committee is pulling out all the stops for this year's 18th annual community event. The Waldo Fall Festival, now called the Waldo Rockin' Block Party will have extended hours and will provide endless opportunities for people to spend the day and evening in Waldo.

New this year during the day will be a bike ride sponsored by Family Bicycle, an artist creating chalk drawings all day, Games2U and Laser Tag, a VIN-Etching service, and the Harley Davidson Motorcycle Club. THEN at 6 p.m., the area is transformed for the Waldo Happy Hour featuring Disco Dick and the Mirror Balls band and Lew's Grill and Bar providing beverages and light refreshments for purchase under the tent.

Beginning with a Pancake Breakfast, the opening ceremonies then begin at 10am at 75th and Wornall Rd. The day's activities include inflatables, car bashing, a train ride and climbing wall; a tent full of area business vendors; performances from area schools and churches, the Tap-A-Thon and dance studio routines, and entertainers including the Mike Miller Band.

Sponsorships are available for the event and provide major advertising opportunities for your organization metro wide. Be included on the posters, in the program, on the radio, and more! Contact Ravin at the Waldo office, 816 -523-5553 for more details!
