Waterfest is being held earlier in the day this year to make it more convenient for families, particularly those with young children, to attend. Admission is free.
Free hotdogs are available for the first 1,500 people, courtesy of Hy-Vee. The U.S. Army is supplying free water in a large cooler, so attendees should bring water bottles or other containers to reuse and stay hydrated.
In conjunction with Waterfest, the Lenexa Historical Society will host its annual ice cream social in the park near Legler Barn Museum.
