July 31, 2025 - Annual Block Party
WHA partnered with the City of Waukegan for this year's Annual Block Party. This community-focused event brought together neighbors, local organizations, and families for a day full of connection and celebration. Some of the features included local vendors, resource tables, live performances, and a K9 demonstration from the Waukegan Police Department.
We would like to thank Roberti Community House for preparing food for this event. They wrapped 500 burgers and 390 hot dogs for us all!
We hope everyone had an amazing time, and we hope to see you all at next year's Annual Block Party!
