The festivities will kick off at 5:30 PM and run until 9:00 PM, with a dynamic lineup of activities designed to engage all ages.

Their upbeat, family-friendly tunes are sure to get everyone on their feet, creating the perfect atmosphere for a lively night.

But the fun doesn’t stop with the music. At 8:00 PM, the spotlight will shift to a special Sloppy Joes Softball game, on the ASStro turf, all in the name of Kickin’ Cancer. Two local men’s softball teams known as the “Sloppy Joes” will play a competitive game of softball adding a spirited touch to the evening as they come together to raise awareness and support for those battling cancer. The Sloppy Joes Softball game is bound to be a crowd-pleaser, blending athletic fun with a meaningful cause.

Other activities include the opportunity to try out disc golfing with equipment provided by Kuhl Disc, a local Disc Golf company and proud supporter of Kickin’ Cancer. There will also be a gaming lodge set up for the kids.
