Rock Island Weekend: Food, Fun, and Community in Chickasha

Rock Island Weekend: Food, Fun, and Community in Chickasha

We're taking you on a journey to the heart of Chickasha for what is rapidly becoming a must-do for everyone in the area: Rock Island Weekend!

Join us as we break down all the can't-miss events happening in Downtown Chickasha, September 26th and 27th. The Oklahoma Food Truck Championship, where over 30 food trucks will battle it out for a $10,000 prize will have food for every taste. We always find a new favorite every year and so will you.

But Rock Island Weekend is more than just food and fun; it's about community. We’ll also be diving into the heart of the festival, including the Rock Island Arts Festival, the Rock Island Charity Bike Ride, and the powerful 9th Annual "Together We Heel" Walk to End Domestic Violence.

And to help us understand the incredible impact of these events, we are honored to be joined by Matt Whetzel, the Executive Director of ICAN (Intervention and Crisis Advocacy Network). Matt will share how ICAN intervenes in times of crisis, advocates for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and empowers victims to become survivors.

So, whether you're a local looking for a weekend of fun or a traveler ready to experience true Oklahoma community, this episode is your complete guide to Rock Island Weekend in Chickasha.

We'll also touch on Amtrak's Latest Announcement, MSN, the Heartland Flyer, Grubbz,The Grady County District Attorney and Wing T’s.

Special Thanks to our partner, Friends of Nicoma Park.
