Rock 'N Block



We hate to say it, but summer is flying by and we’re quickly approaching the end of July. On the bright side, we’re getting closer every day to one of our biggest events of the summer – Rock n Block! Be sure to mark your calendars for August 10th to celebrate the 5th annual Rock n Block at Pinecone Marketplace!
            The event kicks off at 4 p.m. with Kid’s Zone. This is a chance to walk around with the family to check out all of the vendors and play some games – maybe even win a few prizes! If you show up before 6 p.m., you’ll receive $5 worth of kid’s tickets with each paid admission. The kid’s zone will run until 7 p.m. but in the meantime, the band Electric Almighty will take the stage starting at 5 p.m. Electric Almighty is sure to put on a good show and entertain all age groups with their collection of music ranging from 70’s classic rock, to the pop music of the 80’s and 90’s, all the way to today’s biggest hits. At 8 p.m. we will begin our karaoke contest for all of the undiscovered talent in the area brave enough to show off their vocals for the crowd! Then at 9 p.m., the headliners for the night, the Fabulous Armadillos, will perform until midnight. Their creative style has made them one of the most popular bands in central Minnesota; we can’t wait to see what they have in store for us!
            This event would not be possible without all of the support we’ve received from generous sponsors. We’ve teamed up with Leighton Broadcasting and Times Media to cover all forms of promotion. So be on the lookout for any advertisements, keep your ears open for radio ads, and pass on the word of Rock n Block to your friends and family. We want to see everyone come out for a celebration filled with tasty food and drink, fun games, good music, and great company!
