IBD Promotions selects a not-for-profit organization for each of their five shows to raise awareness and community support for organizations that are close to their heart. Oktoberfest will work with MOCSA, (Metropolitan Organization to Counter Sexual Assault). Did you know that one in ten children will be sexually abused before the age of 18? MOCSA’s mission is to improve the lives of those impacted by sexual abuse and assault and to prevent sexual violence in our community. By attending this show you will help to make a difference in survivors’ lives. As the beneficiary of the Chiefs Charity Game, MOCSA will also have themed merchandise available for purchase and proceeds go directly to programs and services for survivors of sexual abuse and assault. For more information about MOCSA visit www.mocsa.org.
Oktoberfest Art & Craft Show will be open from 10:00 to 7:00 on Friday, October 7 and from 10:00 to 4:00 on Saturday, October 8. The venue location is The Pavilion at John Knox Village at 520 NW Murray Rd., Lee’s Summit, MO. It’s free admission and there is a concession stand with seating available, so plan to make it a day.
