Don't miss the final "Groove" of the summer! Local duo Ron Zankey and his daughter Autumn will perform the iconic sounds of the 60's. Come hear songs by The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, The Mamas and the Papas and many more. The show details and a video of Ron and Autumn harmonizing on Homeward Bound follow. Imagine listening to that as you sip a beverage of your choice while the sun sets behind the beautiful Hartwood mansion. Ahhhh... ❤️
