Richard Harris of Rochelle wants to bring the community together, providing positive, family-oriented activities.
His plan has been on the drawing board since last September and on June 3 the first “Heat Wave” (“enjoy the first heat of the summer and wave at your neighbors”) will take place at Atwood Park in Rochelle from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event will feature a bouncy house, face paintings, a softball game, flag football game, a classic car show, a “touch a truck” exhibit, and food. A local pop band called “Elision,” is scheduled to be the first performing.
Harris says there is something for everyone of all ages and he urges the community to get behind the project and attend with families and friends.
