🌎 Cup & Ball Around the World!
A sneak peek at Cultural Exploration Art Camp

Get ready for a camp project with global flair! Kids will explore the cup‑and‑ball game, a toy that started in the 14th century and spread across the world — each country creating its own colorful, creative version. From Japan’s kendama to Mexico’s balero, we’ll look at fun pictures of how different cultures made this classic challenge their own.

Garden Walk + A Full Day of Local Fun

It’s a full day of summer fun in our area, and the Garden Walk runs today from 10–2. Start at Allenia Space to pick up your map and brochure, enjoy a self‑guided tour of beautiful local gardens, and return for a talk by a Master Gardener. Please note that homeowners are not responsible for accidents.

While you’re out and about, the region is buzzing:

Bishop Hill is hosting its Midsommar Music Festival with maypole dancing and live performances.

Route 34 is lined with garage sales stretching from LaSalle County through Bureau County into Henry County.

Galva is adding color downtown with community crosswalk painting.

Make a day of it—explore, enjoy, and celebrate everything happening in our community.
