Description
This inaugural event of the “Live on the Riverwalk” series is a
family-friendly community celebration featuring many firsts:
- First celebration on McHenry Riverwalk’s newly constructed waterfront patio at Miller Point.
- First lighting of the McHenry Riverwalk Fire Globes along Boone Creek.
- First fall gathering at Miller Point to feature live music, local artisans and enriching kids activities.
Imagine…food and beverages, fun, families, and fireglobes in the crisp fall air…
This is a bit of McHenry you haven’t seen before, a special place that combines the beauty of waterfront with the magic of firelight, the sound of music, and hometown pride as we come together to enjoy our community.
