Warm weather is here! Now’s the perfect time to have a neighborhood block party and get paid to host one!
Merriam residents can get reimbursed up to $300 to host a block party. Get to know your neighbors while enjoying hotdogs and watermelon or have an ice cream social.
Use the Neighborhood Block Party Grant to help cover party-related expenses, such as food, paper goods, party favors, and to hire entertainment.
Apply for a grant through Oct. 15. Call David Easley with the Community Development Department at 913-322-5520 with any questions.
