Bring your lawn chairs as we block off Main Street for some good old-fashioned fun.
While you're enjoying the live music, kids can enjoy activities including FREE face painting from Laura Anderson of Clown-A-Round! Teen Volunteer Council will be providing hot dogs and lemonade, welcoming any donations that will go toward enriching the teen experience at the Davenport Public Library.
