Due to the ongoing heat advisory, tonight's DanceFest has been rescheduled to Aug. 12 at 7 p.m. at ResilienCity Park located at 12th and Adams Streets.
Residents are reminded that the heat and humidity being experienced in our region significantly increases the potential for heat related illnesses, especially for the most vulnerable. Remember to stay hydrated and consider checking on vulnerable neighbors. Keep an eye on your pets, as well. Keep them cool and hydrated and don't let dogs linger on hot asphalt.
