A Morrison, IL, committee, called the “Department of Fun,” recognizes our Main Street is shaping up beautifully. Volunteer members are Amanda Cook, Carrie Melton, LeAnn Schaefer, Nick Volkmann, and Dr. Bradley Yaklich. Their plans are set to showcase the opening of the new 200 block of W. Main Street–from Orange-to-Base Streets. Join your community downtown, for a family-friendly, Morrison Main Street Block Party, from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m., on Sunday, July 25, 2021. Included are games, prizes, food, water events, and fun!
Businesses on the block worked hard to plan a great event for Morrisonians of all ages. Events follow.
