Thursday, June 17
in the back parking lot of City Church (1501 W. 54^th St.)

Crosstown Band Concert begins at 6:30 p.m.

We are excited to announce that the Kenny Ice Cream Social is back for 2021! After not having the social for two years due to a rainout in 2019 and pandemic restrictions in 2020, we are ready to bring back the tradition of ice cream, a concert and outdoor fun. Please note the location for 2021 is the back parking lot at City Church (1501 W. 54^th St.)

City Church and neighborhood volunteers will be on hand to scoop up cones of Sebastian Joe’s ice cream- yum! And if that isn’t reason enough to come, we’ll have a 10^th year anniversary concert by the Crosstown Community Band and you can see the Kenny Community Garden, now in its 6^th year. Kids can play on the church playground equipment. Be sure to bring a chair to sit and enjoy the concert. We can’t wait to see everyone IN PERSON on June 17!

Please help us spread the word and tell your friends and neighbors.
