Dance into Labor Day with block party

Waynesville’s Labor Day Block Party will run from 7 to 10 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 3, in downtown. Main Street will close at 5 p.m. for setup.

Restaurants will remain open, many with outdoor seating. A kettle corn vendor and homemade baked goods will be offered by the Waynesville Police Department as a fund raiser for their SRT training. Mr. Tom, the balloon man, will return to the children’s area in front of Fun Things.

The 96.5 House Band will play a set spanning nearly four decades of hits. The Josh Fields Band, a mixture of Southern rock, classic and contemporary country, and bluegrass, is back and Rafe Hollister will bring their own brand of roots music with a seasoned and authentic sound.

Many shops and galleries will remain open. Port-a-jons will be in the upper parking lot of the United Community Bank.
