Making the Call

Despite the weather forecast “Chance of Rain” we pushed on and a good call it was for Strictly Overtime and everyone that came down to the common! The temps dipped a little but it didn’t stop the ice cream from selling or anyone from having a wonderful evening on the common. (Admittedly, I put on a light-weight jacket around 7:30!)

As always, thank you to everyone who came out to support the summer concerts.
We’re off next week for the Independence Day holiday, and then back to the schedule on July 11 with The Transistors when they get us up and dancing to the Sounds of the Sixties! (Oh why, oh how, do they do that to us year after year!?) And maybe by then the winds will settle down enough for tethered hot air balloon rides.

‘Till then… see you on the common!

Do You Like Your Concerts Hot?

It was quite possibly the HOTTEST concert we’ve ever had (and I don’t just mean the band!) and yet a wonderful crowd of Dunstable residents, neighbors and friends gathered on the common to see and enjoy our backyard favorite, the Old Enuff To Know Better Band! Kids stayed cool with water balloons and soaker balls (I think a few volunteers purposely put themselves in the line of water balloon fire, A-hm) and just about everyone had an ice cream!
Thank you to all of you who braved the heat and humidity on THE very first day of summer!
And a special thanks goes out to Jeanne D’Arc Credit Union for their continued support and sponsorship of our concerts!

This Wednesday, we’ll have attempt #2 at tethered hot air balloon rides while classic rock cover band Strictly Overtime entertains!

See you on the common!

Off to a GREAT start & more fun to come!

It was a Summer Concert first for us: A pre-summer performance that took place indoors! And wouldn’t you know it? After a rainy day the sun came out just before they began to play! The US Air Force Mach Four quartet was wonderfully entertaining, informative and 100% red, white and blue! With special thanks to the Dunstable Congregational Church for opening the doors to their Fellowship Hall - it worked out very nicely for all!
Coming up on Wednesday we have Dunstable’s own Old Enuff To Know Better Band, ice cream, t-shirts, kids running & playing and yes, quite possibly…. WATCH OUT for water balloons! And! And! And the Re/Max hot air balloon will be back (for attempt #2 in Dunstable) for tethered hot air balloon rides. Let’s hope for perfect weather AND calm winds this year!
See you Wednesday, on the Common!
