âStarting today, Thursday, May 20, certain roads in downtown Fenton will shut down at 4 p.m. to make way for this summerâs Street Experience.
âImplemented last summer to help struggling businesses because of the COVID restrictions set by the state, Fenton City is continuing the Street Experience this year based on the positive feedback it received.
âFenton City Council unanimously approved an updated emergency regulation in April to allow for the Street Experience to happen this spring and summer.
âWith health, safety and welfare in mind, Michael Hart, assistant city manager and Downtown
Development Authority (DDA) executive director, said they have created a number of mini events to supplement the Fenton Street Experience during the four months of operation â from May 20 and 21 to Oct. 14 and 15, in addition to the Farmers Market on Thursdays.

RUSHVILLE Each year, M.o.R.E. for Kids hosts Bowl M.o.R.E. for Kids in February or March, its big fundraiser of the year. Organizers thought this year may not be the best to host an event indoors with COVID-19 concerns.
So, instead, the organization will host the M.o.R.E. for Kids Corn Hole and Disc Golf Tournament. The event is scheduled for May 16 at Rushville’s Riverside Park Amphitheater.
On May 16, there will be many activities for all ages.
The Disc Golf Tournament will have two separate sections, depending on players’ skill level. There will also be a competitive Corn Hole tournament. There will be raffle baskets and Ollie’s BBQ will be there as well.
