Final Summer Bash This Week at Third Thursday

(Joplin, MO)Downtown Joplin Alliance (DJA) and Ajinomoto Foods welcomes the community to Main Street for August’s Third Thursday!

As summer draws to a close, Ajinomoto Foods is sponsoring this month’s event and giving away free shaved ice from Kona Ice. Find them at the corner of 4th and Main Street and enjoy a refreshing treat while playing some games and winning prizes! Ajinmoto is a new facility in Joplin and is looking forward to getting to know the community!

Celebrate being part of Joplin, enjoy some live music, dine on some great food and check out the vendors at Thursday’s event. Cool down with some live theatre and then wrap up the night with a show at Chaos Brewing Company, LLC or some virtual reality gaming, or even throw some axes!
