Dark Forest~ Powell Gardens

Presented in partnership with Quixotic, Powell Gardens ushers in fall with an immersive, multimedia walk-through experience in the woods. As the dark lush veils of nightfall sweep solemnly across an eerie Midwest sky, Dark Forest invites you to journey through a magical and mysterious wooded landscape where the channels of nature’s mortal realms are fiercely pierced by unexplainable paranormal forces and spellbinding supernatural beings.

Fall Clean The Burg

The Love What’s Local Committee is declaring a Fall Clean the Burg from Thursday, September 21st to Thursday, September 28th.

Registration will begin at 8:00am and the run will begin at 9:00am, with heat intervals every 5 minutes. Run route will follow Gay street to Holden street and back. Stay tuned for official road closures. This is a FUN RUN, so we will not be timing any runners. However, we will be announcing some fun competitions and prizes closer to the event. This is a fundraising event for Johnson County United Way, so all proceeds from the run will be used to fund youth organizations and non-profits in our county.
