---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The annual three day
happening on the Circle
and along Canal Street in
Miami Springs will be celebrating
its 40 plus years
in 2018 and the planning is
well under way.
The Festival Committee met
at the Lions Club on Monday
night and discussed how we can
make the 2017 edition better
than ever. There are always new
ideas thrown out and some will
stick. But the tried and true
facets of the River Cities
Festival will continue next year
and beyond.
We are always looking for
volunteers with new ideas that
will bring more people to the
family-oriented festival and
allow the regulars who attend
every year to enjoy it more. All
the committee asks is that you be
willing to work to make your
idea come to fruition next April
13-15.
Our next open-to-the-public
meeting at the Lions Club is
Monday, May. 15, 2017 at 7 p.m.
and it’s not too late for you to
help in 2018. You are welcome
to come see how the inner workings
of planning the largest single
event in Miami Springs take
place and to help make it happen.
Some of the new ideas for
2018 include a Teen Club, a
Jeep Show, an area for family
portraits, and three days,
instead of two, for the Arts &
Crafts vendors. Of course,
there will be Salsa Night on
Friday, a 5K race and a Mega
Reunion on Saturday, along
with a Cake-Bake, Dog Show
and Chili Showdown on
Sunday.
We are all excited about making
the Teen Club happen. The
plans are to provide the most
neglected age group at the
Festival with a private location to
listen to their kind of music, mingle
in a casual setting, and enjoy
non-alcoholic beverages and
food service.
Teen Club on Friday
and Saturday night. Of course,
there will have to be excellent
security, strict rules on “teens
only” allowed, and festival staff
members inside at all times. The
location and details are still
being worked on and YOUR
input is welcome.
DJ WiWi (Jorge Lee) runs the
Salsa Night at the stage on the
East end of Canal Street and has
a lot to do with the new Miami Dade County High Schools
Reunion in the same area on
Saturday night. But he is willing
