The very moment the rain ended, the Shock Pocket roadie crew arrived in force to begin setting up for tonight’s concert.

Lots of hair pulling this afternoon with the weather being so changeable.

Now we see sunshine in the west and are hopeful all will come enjoy the band, and a little bit of starlight with the late start.

Come on down to the Love Lock bridge.

We are proceeding with concert plans for this evening

In early February we hosted an open forum to solicit greater community involvement in our first generation group of community supporters.

Seeking sustainability, we looked to the folks gathered for feedback and participation.

We succeeded in attracting more participants, or “Shovelers” and executed the Terrance project in 15 days this past spring.

Look at it now. Who wouldn’t want to be part of this?

Thank you to all the volunteers.

Reminiscing about the beautiful evening we experienced in our downtown gem of park this past Friday. The Wire City Ramblers gave our community a chance to relax and unwind in an uncommon atmosphere.

It was an exceptional evening for many reasons, and we will be enjoying the next concert on only a little less than two weeks.

Mark your calendars for Shock Pocket on August 7.. Sparta Cinema 6 will be providing the concessions.
