“It’s a great way to get involved in the Water Street District community and to see how much the neighborhood continues to grow,” said Bailey Dunham, events specialist for the Water Street District. “With Day Air Ballpark being within Water Street District, we wanted to bring the community together and help highlight the neighborhood.”

Businesses participating in the event include Base Camp Outdoor Co., Local Cantina, Alta Fiber, Winans Coffee and more.

Party at the Plaza will feature inflatables for kids, oversized lawn games, cornhole and other family activities. There will also be a raffle at the event, with prizes including Winans chocolate, a hand-painted mural, Dayton Dragons merch and more. Dragons’ mascots Gem and Heater will also be in attendance.

Food will be available at the event, and those older than 21 may purchase alcoholic beverages.

At 7:05 p.m., the Dayton Dragons will face the Cedar Rapids Kernels, the first of a five-game series.

The Water Street District plans on hosting more Party at the Plaza event in the future.

“It has been well-loved by the community and we’re excited to bring it back next season with the Dayton Dragons,” Dunham said.
