June First
Friday to feature Live Music, Non-Profits and Mini-Parks
Editor Note: Empowering Darke County Youth will be there… look for us!
Main Street Greenville’s June First Friday event will be sponsored
through the generosity of the Jordan Agency and will bring a whole
evening of family fun to the downtown district! The event is scheduled
for Friday, June 1st from 6-9 pm. The event is slated to feature live
music performances, a volunteer fair to highlight the work of local
non-profits, and, brand new this year, the introduction of “parklets.”
“The inclusion of parklets in First Friday is a new concept that Main
Street Greenville is excited to be bringing to downtown,” said Crysta
Hutchinson, Executive Director of Main Street Greenville. “The
mini-parks will be places for people to sit with friends, enjoy a treat
from a downtown business, and relax while listening to live music. They
will have plants and places to sit and just bring a taste of nature
into our downtown district. We’re very grateful to Hupmans Lawn Care
for helping us create the parklets!”
The live music performances will be taking place both indoors and
outdoors. This will allow people to enjoy music as they stroll, shop,
and dine downtown during the evening. You will be able to hear great
local musicians no matter how you choose to spend your time.
Main Street Greenville invites everyone to grab a bite to eat downtown
from 6-7 pm, then enjoy the music performances from 7-9 pm.
The event will also include a Volunteer Fair. The fair will feature
over a dozen non-profit organizations offering a family friendly
activity, while sharing information about the work they do to make
Darke County even better through the help of volunteers. After learning
about their missions, you are encouraged to get involved and become a
volunteer! It is a great way to connect to your community and help make
a difference!
In addition, many businesses will stay open late! Just a few of the fun
activities planned during the event; Greenville National Bank will be
grilling free hot dogs while supplies last and First Presbyterian
Church will be offering free cookie decorating. Bread of Life Bookstore
will be having a book signing with author Kristen Samuels and Youniques
Boutique will have free chair massages in store along with special
sales on select items. Shelly's Antiques and Decor will mark 20% off on
all nail kegs and crates for the First Friday and The Little Ones will
be offering 75% off the entire store. To find a list of all the
activities taking place during the event, visit Main Street
