Holly Park Concert Series Draws Large Crowds
If you missed the first three concerts in Holly Park this summer, you have been missing a rocking good time!
“I think it’s the most exciting thing!” said CLV resident Carol Burnette.
“This is a great way to bring neighbors together,” said Christmas Lake Village Board President Don Vogel. He said it was great to see people coming together and enjoying each other.
CLV resident Mary Sue Johnson commented, “I’ve talked to people I’ve never talked to before.” Johnson also said the concerts were a great event to take visiting family or friends to.
On June 23rd CLV’s Evening in Holly Park series kicked off with jazz music from local group Fine Wine. The easy sounds of jazz echoed throughout Holly Park while over 200 people listened and spent time with friends and neighbors. Some villagers came prepared, bringing cheese, meat and vegetable platters and sharing their own bottles of fine wine.
The second concert was held July 28th and the classic rock band, Freestyle cranked up the volume and rocked the evening away with classic oldies from the 70’s and 80’s. Over 250 people came out to enjoy the show. Many people joined in, like board member Keith Blair and his wife Barbara, and helped belt out some of the evening’s tunes.
The third concert in CLV’s Evening in Holly Park series took place August 25th at 6 p.m. Local band, Midstreem entertained villagers with sounds of Bluegrass.
“The concerts have been very well attended and the people are very enthusiastic,” commented Property Manager Mark Kroeger.
The September concert date and time is yet to be determined but a special event is planned to close out the concert series.
