Breaking News: Mid-town Restaurant's Support Local Neighborhoods!

The Roanoke Neighborhood has a new tradition that is good for our community and also benefits Roanoke directly.  A number of Kansas City Mid-town Restaurants have partnered with Roanoke to host a monthly Roanoke Neighborhood Dinner.  Roanoke residents come together for a great evening of food and drinks, the residents contribute to the success of unique locally-owned restaurants and the restaurant owners contribute 15% of the total bill to the Roanoke Protective Homes Association to support this unique neighborhood in mid-town Kansas City.  Roanoke sends a big thank you to the restaurants that support our neighborhoods!
