It’s that time of year again…time to put on your struttin’ shoes, and hit the streets of Viewmont! The 5th annual Viewmont Street Strut, a celebration of the diverse nature of the community, is happening in Hickory on Saturday, September 27. Area businesses, retail shops and restaurants are uniting together, once again to bring this event to life.
This year’s Viewmont Street Strut event is lining up to be a day filled with exciting activities. There will be free trolley and shuttle buses running all day through the heart of the Viewmont community, so you will not have to deal with traffic or with finding that perfect parking space. Designated shuttle stops are being placed along the route, making it easy to visit as many businesses as possible.
Matt Miller of Bootleggers' Whiskey Bar • Grill, who has been a participant each year, is pleased with the impact the event makes on the community. “We are seeing more and more families sharing the day out together, because there really is something for everyone, regardless of gender or age.”
The Street Strut is designed to allow neighbors to gather and sample the wide assortment of restaurants and shops, right here in our own back yard. It also showcases many extremely talented artists and musicians who live and work in the area.
“We love the community feel of the Viewmont area. It is impressive how the Street Strut unites different types of businesses together to create a positive experience in the area,” commented Natasha Bouldin, of Roasted ‘Tater restaurant. “It brings the whole community together in support of each other.”
Every location is doing something different to celebrate the day. There will be wine tastings, live dancing and musical entertainment, free food, special sale discounts, fun activities for the kids, talented artists and sculptors for us to meet, plus so much more!
