Outdoor music and eats: Brownsburg kicks off new Rock the Block night
By Lindsay Doty
Dozens of people came out to Arbuckle Commons in Brownsburg on Thursday for the town’s inaugural Rock the Block night.
The outdoor event offered a mix of live music, food trucks, beer and wine, yard games, and family activities.
Rock the Block nights will run every Thursday from 7 to 9 p.m. from now until October and are free to get in.
“We’re very excited to bring live entertainment to Arbuckle Commons for the community,” said Mary Louise Bewley, Brownsburg communication manager.
“This is the first of many events that Brownsburg Parks plans to host at Arbuckle Commons. Our goal is to bring residents together in a fun way that builds a sense of community.”
Rock the Block is organized by the Town of Brownsburg and Brownsburg Parks and Recreation.
In a time of COVID-19, many families are looking for outdoor socially-distant activities to do in their community. Guests were encouraged to stay six feet apart and wear masks.
Indy Beer Taps provided all beer & wine for the beer garden.
Mike Whitlock performed at the event with food by The Kickstand.
