Ice Cream Social
Enjoy free Sebastian Joe’s ice cream, story time with Hennein County Master Gardeners at 6:30pm, and a fabulous concert from the Crosstown Community Band at 7pm. Several ice cream flavors plus a GF/DF option will be provided. Sir Sydney Soapington, the Baron of Bubble; and Lady Rainbow of Balloon will also be at the park to delight neighbors with artistic bubbles and special balloon creations. Many thanks to City Church for sponsoring the ice cream! As always, they are a fantastic community partner in the neighborhood.
Green Fair
While you enjoy ice cream, learn from Hennepin County Master Gardeners, Adopt a Drain, Minneapolis Solid Waste & Recycling, Minneapolis Park Foresters, Electrify Everything, and more! Find ways to reduce your household’s environmental impact, improve our local water quality, and take action on climate change. Thanks to the Kenny Environmental Committee for organizing this exciting addition to our beloved annual event!
Sponsors
Special thanks to Field Outdoor Spaces and All Energy Solar for sponsoring the Green Fair — this event wouldn’t be possible without their generous support!
