We’re excited to announce the unveiling of a refurbished mid-century era streetlight on Williams Avenue S. Originally installed in 1960 and donated by the Cugini Family, this streetlight has been revitalized by Western Neon with color-changing LEDs, blending historical charm with modern artistic flair. Join us for the dedication ceremony on August 1 at 11 a.m. to celebrate this wonderful addition to our city.
The Summer Concert Series continues with performances you won’t want to miss! On August 1, Dakota Poorman delivers a fresh twist on country music with his raw rock ‘n roll, fiery fiddle, and banjo.
