Join us in Central Park in Andover as we commemorate the one-year anniversary of the April 29 tornado and continue to Stand With Andover. The Andover community, along with Butler and Sedgwick Counties, have come so far over the last year and we invite you to bring your family and friends out to celebrate. Enjoy an uplifting devotion from Hope Community Church, pancakes and sausage, entertainment by The Prairie Creek Singers, Butler Community College Smorgies and Noteables, and updates from The City and YMCA.

Following the program, Central Park amenities will be available for attendees to enjoy, including the disc golf course, the playground, the dog park, and Lake George. There will also be informational booths available, including United Way of the Plains, South Central Mental Health, Sedgwick and Butler County Emergency Management and more.

This event is free and open to the public. There will be seating available, but feel free to bring your chairs and blankets out to enjoy the morning with us.

We would love to include your photos in our slideshow! If your team, family, etc. has behind the scenes photos from the months to follow the tornado, please share with mschapaugh@andoverks.com.
