Go Ahead and Park It!

Thanks to copious private donations, the city of Stockton won't have to spend any money this year to support the summer concert program. The first aired last night in Victory Park as music (and dog) lovers enjoyed the Valley Concert Band at its finest. Great music and a docile crowd (except for the kids) added to the pleasure of listening to classic stuff (old and new) without too much distraction. The kids played in back of the folks, while people strolled with pups and partners here and there. Just bring a chair, a blanket, some friends, something to eat, and listen to the repertoire.

There will be a wide mix of performers, everything from polka to jazz to latin to classical to whatever. Sorry, no rap!
