Meet Your City's Communications Team and Discover What's Happening This June
Manage episode 485990642 series 3646641
Summer is heating up in Raymore! Join Communications Director Melissa Harmer and Community Engagement Coordinator Alex Garcia as they unveil an exciting lineup of community events designed to bring residents together during the busy summer season.
After a fun introduction where we learn about our two-person Communications Department through rapid-fire personal questions (including Alex's childhood fear of E.T. and Melissa's first career aspiration as a Ponderosa waitress!), we dive into the numerous free community events happening right here in Raymore during June.
The conversation highlights eight different community gatherings, starting with the return of the Raymore Farmers Market every Tuesday, 4-7pm at T.B. Hanna Station. We also cover the Electronics Recycling Event (June 7), the Arts Commission concert featuring The Yachties (June 13), Touch a Truck with a sensory-friendly hour (June 14), Household Hazardous Waste Collection (June 14), and the two-day Festival of the Parks featuring the Bricks and Block Party (June 26) and Spirit of America celebration with fireworks (June 27).
What makes these events special? They're all free to attend, family-friendly, and designed to help residents connect with neighbors while enjoying everything our community has to offer without leaving town. Whether you're interested in supporting local vendors, enjoying live music, helping your children explore big trucks, or watching a spectacular fireworks display, there's something for everyone right here in Raymore this summer.
