One of the best things about the summer months is all the time we get to spend outside.
There’s so much to do around here, it’s hard not to want to enjoy the fresh air from sunup to sundown – and beyond.
And soon, you’ll be able to move and groove to the sweet sounds of some great local bands thanks to three outdoor concert series.
When all three are up and running, there will be some weeks when you’ll be able to make your way to four separate venues.
It all gets going with the Nevers Band next Tuesday, but keep reading and you’ll see the lineups for all three. You can even cut it out and hang it on your fridge.
