Join us as we kick off our 31st year on the shores of Lake Cadillac in the Rotary Arts Pavilion!
This year we need your help more than ever. While we are so appreciative of our partners, we are always in need of sponsorships. Please support our 31st year so we can keep the Thursday night tradition of music in the park for years to come!
