Food Trucks on Front Street - The Last of 2024
The food trucks on Front Street has seem to really taken off this year, with live music, and abundance of choices for food and drink, as well as an amazing energy on Front Street, reminiscent of the past glory days of Mokena! I also got to speak with the group the village has hired to help with the master plan update. This is a huge process that will set in place Mokena's path for the next 15-20 years. You won't want to miss out on this process and give your input to the Village.
Enjoy this quick walk around the food trucks and be sure to check them out next year!
