This Thursday and every consecutive Thursday through the 2022 summer season, the Rotary Club of Waterbury presents FREE musical concerts at the Rusty Parker Memorial Park in Downtown Waterbury. This "Concert in the Park" series is believed to be the longest consecutive running FREE to the public cultural arts series of its type in Vermont. This season's opening concert is made possible through the generosity of a Grant provided by Revitalizing Waterbury in recognition of the Rotary Club's 40th year of Concerts in the Park, and 85th Anniversary of service to the Waterbury community.
This week, the 332nd concert is "Jenni Johnson and the Jazz Junketeers" band which will be performing American Jazz classics, blues, swing and funk music immediately after a special program which will begin at 5:45 PM
Come join us with family and friends that will be bringing their lawn chairs, blankets, and picnic supper or purchase your supper from a variety of vendors on site. Come early and shop from the numerous food vendors and booths set up at the Waterbury Farmer's Market, 4:00 - 7:00 pm. See you there and pick up a full schedule of this year's musical performers and play our weekly 50/50 Raffle with the proceeds going to support of concert expenses.
Please, everyone, adhere to the State of Vermont COVID-19 prevention guidelines in effect. Also, for the safety of the performers, Farmers Market vendors and the crowd…please remind guests and your children that unleashed dogs, bike riding, ball playing, climbing on structures and trees, and running through the gardens or crowd are prohibited during the event.
On the following Thursday, June 9th, the "Waterbury Community Band" will be the 333rd concert celebrating a 25th Anniversary partnership with Rotary and highlighting the completion and opening of the "Joan Myers Gibson Bandstand" back in 1997.
If inclement weather threatens the performance, listen to WDEV Radio Thursday afternoons for notification of cancellation.
