SOCIAL HANG & "FREE" CONCERT IN THE PARK

FOR THIS ONE, LEAVE YOUR BIKE AT HOME AND -- LET'S HAVE A "SOCIAL HANG & ATTEND A "FREE" CONCERT IN THE PARK!"

Saturday, August 23rd | 5:30-8:30pm
"The Smooth Sounds of Santana"

• 5:30 - If anyone wants to get there early and help me set up a canopy I'll decorate with party lights - to reserve and area - let me know in the comment area below. Otherwise, you can come whenever it's good for you.
• 6:00 - Food Trucks open for service
• 7:00 - Concert Time!! Bring your dancing shoes. Yes, there is an area to dance!

--------------------------

• COST: "Nada!" This concert is "free" and open to the public!
• FOOD: All event goers are welcome to pack their own picnic dinner & eating utensils -- or hit the food trucks. Take note -- this is not a potluck so make sure you bring food or some money for the food trucks! ~~~ IF you want to share food, I'll have a small folding table available.
• BYOB: - Alcohol is permitted at the event, as confirmed by city hall. Attendees are kindly asked to consume responsibly and refrain from establishing a bar setup. Moderate, respectful enjoyment is encouraged in keeping with community guidelines.
• SEATING: Please bring your own camping/folding chairs and/or blankets to the park.
• DRESS: Dress comfortably but bring a jacket for the evening. It can get chilly near the end of the evening.
• HEADLAMP: Maybe bring a headlamp as the park is dimly lit when the concert ends and the grassy area can be uneven.
• BATHROOMS: Nice bathrooms in the park, but only two stalls. So when you feel the urge, get up and go! There might be line. (Yes, mom!) -- Maybe they'll add portables, not sure.
• EXTRAS: Feel free to bring glow sticks, party lights (dim), battery powered candles. Glow Tubes are pretty cool too and you can also use them on your bike for evening rides!
• COSTUMES? Maybe dress up like Carlos Santana - mustache and all?

------------------------

• PARKING, FREE:
  Parking spots "in the park" are either limited or saved for the band, concert staff & vendors, so street parking might be the only places to park.
  Parking in the residential area is allowed. Just know you might have to walk with food, chairs & blankets. Or drop your loved one off with the goods, park and walk back in!
