St. Louis Hills Directory 2026

10 2026 | St. Louis Hills Community Directory GATEWAY CUP St. Louis’ premier cycling event, the Gateway Cup pro-am bicycle racing series has made numerous appearances in St. Louis Hills on Labor Day weekend. The streets bordering Francis Park turn into a bicycle racetrack, with cyclists hurtling around corners at speeds averaging 30 miles per hour. In previous years, the race drew athletes (novice and professional) from 25 states, coast to coast, as well as a professional team all the way from Colombia! The children of St. Louis Hills also get a chance to register for the Kids’ Race, which allows them to ride on the course and compete for medals and prizes. GRUB & GROOVE Held in Francis Park, Grub & Groove is a free summer festival featuring local restaurants, music, and family entertainment. Organized by the nonprofit South City Investment Corp since 2012, this event is the group’s major fundraiser for community improvement projects. Visit grubandgroove.org for more information. HOUSE TOUR Every two years, the St. Louis Hills Neighborhood Association conducts a house tour. Ten homes (and typically a church or rectory) are featured. Past tour homes have included the first home built in St. Louis Hills (1929), and the former home of baseball Hall-of-Famer, Stan Musial. People who take the tour comment about the unique architectural designs and materials (brick construction with tile or slate roofs) and other luxurious elements such as stained-glass windows. RUN FOR THE HILLS Run for the Hills was started 35 years ago to raise money for the beautification of Francis Park.
