2011 Dinner in the Park - Entertainment

Friday, August 26, 2011 (5PM - 8PM)

Featuring "Triadd"



All the way from Cary, Illinois -- Rick Jacobs and Tim McGovern play classic to current Rock in an acoustic format.

June Entertainers: "Together Again"  

The band "Together Again" is composed of keyboardist Marti Bonne, bassist Jim Seidel and drummer John Briggs.  When they were in high school, Marti, Jim and John played together in many ensembles, and Marti and Jim also went to the Berklee School of Music in Boston.  In 2009, after more than 30 years apart, they reconnected on Facebook, and just like the "Blues Brothers," they decided to get the band back together!  You'll have a great time listening to them playing smooth jazz, fusion, Latin and pop, Together Again!

July Entertainer: Local legend, Dave Sarkis.  

Dave's popular music and charismatic style brings fans in from throughout the area.
