🌞🎸🎶FREE SUMMER CONCERT in the Park in Carlsbad! 🎶💃🤩

🤩🤘🌞Are you ready for an evening of music, fun, and friends? Let's kick off summer right at a FREE concert at Stagecoach Community Park on Friday, June 20th at 5pm featuring The Highwayman Show Band! There will be a large area for dancing, so get ready to get down!

🎈 Bring your blanket or low-back beach/lawn chair, and food and drinks (alcohol is permitted) so we can enjoy a picnic in the park with live music! No food vendors will be present. Look for the balloons tied to a beach chair to find us in the park. I will arrive at 4pm to secure an area based on the number of RSVPs, so keep your RSVP up to date!

🎶🤠 Step into the heart of outlaw-country and join the celebration with The Highwayman Show. Get ready to sing along, stomp your boots, dance, and relive the golden era with an electrifying tribute to legends Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson. This is more than a show. It’s a full-on country experience. Led by Tony Suraci, known for his remarkable vocal range and stage presence, the band delivers a must-see performance, even if you're not a big country fan!

‼️RSVP WITH INTEGRITY - don't respond "yes" unless and until you are reasonably certain you will be able to attend. If plans change, update your RSVP as soon as possible. If you cancel within 24 hours, drop a comment as well so I don't hold space for a no-show.

😊🎶💃 See you there! 🎸😊👍

******************************************************************

✅ RSVP responsibly. Keep your RSVP up to date - if you sign up but have to cancel, please edit your reply, preferably 24 hours in advance. Cancelling at the last minute and no-showing causes problems for both the event organizer and the venue. It also violates our membership rules. Leave a comment in the event post to alert the organizer that you have changed your RSVP.

❌ Two no-shows total (meaning no communication about not showing up, either in RSVP, event comments, or a DM to the event host) to any type of event will be grounds for removing you from the group. A lot goes into setting up the right activity, venue, reserved space, negotiated fees, security deposits, supplies and more for every event, which is all based on your RSVP. We'd hate to lose you!

✅ Annual membership dues are just $6 for an entire year - what a deal! Meetup now charges $350 per year for an organizer to create a group. Yikes! Your membership dues will be applied to these fees plus all other expenses incurred on behalf of the group. Your first event is free to see if The Thrive Tribe is a good fit for you. After your first event, please Venmo $6 to @Melanie-Zaner (preferred), or bring cash to your second event. Yearly dues will need to be renewed every 12 months.
