The “Let’s Move Killeen” organization is doing great things in the community.

They are the group that protected the Killeen Mall from potential vandalism.

Now they've partnered with the City of Killeen and have received a permit to block off a few blocks in downtown Killeen to have an event that will help raise awareness in the community on the political side and build small businesses.

It's the Juneteenth Block Party happening this Saturday, June 20th starting at 2 PM. You can join the celebration in Killeen's Historic District, 215 East Avenue D.

There will be vendors of all types, local performers/speakers, campaigners for the city and county, and you can also register to vote on site. There'll also be activities for the kids.

Follow Let's Move Killeen on their Facebook page for more information.
