Have you ever sat on your porch and enjoyed hearing a neighbor strumming a guitar on a nearby porch? Porchfest takes this idea and multiplies it to create a free, family-friendly citywide event where the community can share their love of playing and listening to music by holding porch concerts in different neighborhoods. The festival is centered around local music, art, and neighborly hospitality! For the first time Porchfest is coming to Jefferson City on May 6th to Capitol Ave from 1-4pm! There will be a wide range of diverse musical styles participating! See you at the Porch for PorchfestJCMO!
| Ready or Not? Life is full of surprises – some better than others. And in your daily life, you probably already prepare for many potentially unpleasant, unexpected events – for instance, by changing your smoke detector batteries in case of a fire. This concept applies to your family’s finances. A job loss, extended disability or untimely loss of a family member can profoundly impact your family’s financial situation. Though you can’t predict the unexpected, you thankfully can prepare. Join us for Ready or Not? Preparing for the Unexpected. During this insurance sales presentation, you’ll learn how to develop a proactive strategy to help protect your family. |
