Hutchinson turns 150 and hundreds celebrate at a mile-long block party on Main Street

Hundreds gathered for a giant block party, commemorating Hutchinson’s 150th birthday. The mile-long celebration started at 6 p.m. with a photo of more than 300 celebrants, dressed in Hutchinson’s yellow and blue, forming the number 150 and waving at a drone. “It’s a fun historic event,” said Lauren Storm of the Hutchinson/Reno County Chamber of Commerce. “It’s a great idea for the city officials to involve everybody on this historic moment.” The Reno County Museum, the City of Hutchinson, Hutch Rec and the Hutchinson/Reno County Chamber of Commerce partnered to create a community block party on Aug. 18.
