Join the party, even if you have a 9 p.m. bedtime! Gather your family to celebrate the new year—a little early. The fun begins at 10:30 a.m. when families can enjoy making party hats and noise makers, sharing resolutions, and dancing together as we count down to 12:00 noon. At the stroke of noon, get ready for the highlight of the day—a spectacular balloon drop that showers the crowd in color and joy! Registration not required for this free family event. Many thanks to Hy-Vee, Inc. for their support of this event.
