Yes, there will be live music. Yes, there will be ribs. On August 21 and 22, you won't need to ask for much else at the fifth annual River Roots Live festival in downtown Davenport.

Saturday, June 13

On June 13, the 20th-annual Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure Quad Cities will begin at the i wireless Center in Moline. Every year, Race for the Cure draws nearly 8,000 men, women, and children from around the Quad Cities in support of breast-cancer research. The 5K run/walk winds through downtown Moline, looking like a pink tidal wave made up of breast-cancer survivors, family members, and members of the community who support the cause.
