MOLINE, Ill. — The City of Moline is planning an annual summer festival after the success of Moline's sesquicentennial in the summer of 2022.
Last year's celebration recognized the city's 150th anniversary since its founding.
A city representative said the Moline City Council has budgeted enough to bring back the event in 2023 and they hope to make it an annual event.
Organizers are asking the community to rename the new event, as they said reusing the "Moline 150th" name would not make sense.
The organizers are turning to the community to come up with a name after there was success asking the public to name the City of Moline's snowplow fleet.
The public is asked to submit suggestions along with giving feedback on how to improve the festival. Anyone interested can access the suggestion form by clicking/tapping here.
