KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Frontline workers were at the top of mind across the Kansas City area on Wednesday evening.
Several organizations honored those who've been on the frontlines of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Country Club Plaza flipped the switch on the Plaza Lights for five minutes to honor workers.

Every year on Thanksgiving, the lights are flipped on for the community to enjoy through Jan. 9.
