The Community for Unity event is in downtown Yuma in a few days. Events are planned throughout the day.
Main Street will be closed from First Avenue to Fourth Avenue from 7:00 a.m. on Friday so the day is safe for all businesses, sellers, buyers and children to enjoy. First Avenue to Second Avenue will be closed until midnight. Second Avenue to Fourth Avenue opens at 7:00 p.m. There will be an all-day cake sale in various areas of Main Street and the interstate shops throughout the day.
Activities in the block from first to second include a free bouncy castle and cheerleader cake in the face booth from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Eight of the YHS cheerleaders have the right to participate with the UCA All American team in the Thanksgiving Day Parade at Disney World in Orlando Florida.
The event crew sets up tables and chairs early in the morning so that the shoppers need a break while shopping. The beer garden is set up around noon, but does not open until 4 p.m.
Three local bands will set up their equipment from around 2:30 p.m. at the northern end of the beer garden so that they will be ready for you to play from 4:00 p.m. The line-up consists of Rodney Mead, MT Pockets and Next Tuezday. The beer garden, sponsored by the Tumbleweed Brewing & Wine Company, opens when Rodney starts playing and stays open until the street dance ends at midnight where we can enjoy the music from The Circuit Breakers! No nominal fee.
At the entrance to the beer garden on the corner of Main and Second, there is a steak dinner from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., which is a fundraising campaign for Community Blessings For Hope, a non-profit organization founded by LaRetta Mallory and a committee and a ray of sunshine by they create a fun, free day for patients and their caregivers to give them a break from their difficult health journey. Dinner tickets are $ 30 for adults and $ 15 for children 12 and under. The proceeds from the cake sale also support this organization.
There is a possibility that a small dessert auction will take place at 7.30pm, but this is yet to be determined. At 7:50 p.m., two door prizes will be raffled – one for an adult and one for a child. Your ticket from the steak dinner will automatically be entered into you and you must be there to win! Another drawing also takes place and is described below.
