BELOIT – As the old song goes, “It doesn’t matter what you wear, just as long as you are there.”
The Downtown Beloit Association is hoping people will be “Dancing In The Street” as the association is planning its 28th Annual Street Dance set for Aug. 5. But, there is more than dancing planned for the event. This year will include a fashion show and a new band providing the tunes.
The 300 block of State Street will be blocked off for the street dance, which will include music, food, beer and a chance for everyone to be outside and visiting with friends and neighbors. About 3,000 people normally turn out for the Street Dance, according to Downtown Beloit Association Executive Director Shawna El-Amin.
