Save the date! Whittaker Homes announces the much anticipated grand opening for The New Town at St. Charles, a traditional neighborhood development off Hwy. 370 and New Town Blvd., on Saturday, June 25 and Sunday June 26 from 9 a.m. – 6 p.m. The event will take place at the New Town Amphitheater.
The grand opening will debut the five new single-family displays and four row house displays. In addition, Whittaker Homes is releasing new sites in Phase II, known as the Island District. Some of the units planned for this phase will be directly on the water and will portray an architectural style that is similar to that found in Europe.
The days’ events will include stilt walkers, jugglers, a magician, giveaways and prizes, such as bikes and a Vespa scooter. Many on-air personalities will be live from New Town during select times on Saturday or Sunday, including talent from KEZK, KMOX, K-Hits, and 101.1 The River. There also will be live bands performing at different times both days.
During the grand opening, the amphitheater will be surrounded by approximately 50 booths. Many of the suppliers will be on hand to answer questions about the unique housing products and materials used at New Town. Some of the local churches and schools also will have a booth at the event.
As part of the grand opening festivities, Whittaker Homes is hosting a Taste of St. Charles as well. These tents will be located around the amphitheater. Attendees are invited to sample food from Hawaiian BBQ & Grill, The Coffee Cottage, Tony’s on Main, Crazy Sushi, Maui Wowi, Claudia’s Cake CafĂ©, Hawaiian Shaved Ice and St. Charles Vintage House & Wine Garden.
Attendees are invited to stay for Shakespeare in the Park. The St. Charles Arts and Cultural Commission present an entertaining circus version of Romeo & Juliet. The performances will take place on Friday, June 24 and Saturday, June 25 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, June 26 at 7 p.m. at the New Town Amphitheater.
