As summer heats up, the Summerlin master planned community is turning up the excitement with a line-up of fun family-friendly events, according to Danielle Bisterfeldt, Senior Vice President, Marketing and Consumer Experience. “The next few weeks in Summerlin are action-packed, and we invite the entire Southern Nevada community to join us for Battle for Vegas, the Summerlin Council Patriotic Parade, and the Summerlin Sounds concert series at Downtown Summerlin®,” she said.
Battle for Vegas returns for its seventh year on Saturday, June 27 at Las Vegas Ballpark® in Downtown Summerlin. Vegas Golden Knights (VGK) winger Reilly Smith is back to captain Team Knights, while tight end Brock Bowers will captain Team Raiders. The annual showdown brings together top athletes from VGK and the Raiders for a night of competition, entertainment, and giving back—battling for bragging rights while supporting local nonprofits.
