Fifth Annual Cedar Mill Park Concert
|
The Cedar Mill Business Association has put up signs around the community to help people locate the park |
So where is Cedar Mill Park anyway? Long-time locals and everyone whose kids have attended Cedar Mill School know the answer, but it seems that a lot of folks haven’t located this little gem of a park next to the school on the north side of Cornell near 107th. But not to worry, if you want to attend the fifth annual Cedar Mill Park Concert, just park in the Cedar Mill Bible Church parking lot (12208 NW Cornell) and catch the shuttle bus.
This years’ concert, presented by Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District, promises to be better than ever, with American blues and folk music from the Renegade Minstrels, who put their own twist on traditional tunes and also write original songs.
An eclectic mix of food will be available from our food vendor, or bring your own picnic. Tilly’s Gelato and More will be serving their yummy creations for dessert, so plan to leave some room for that.
On your way in, grab a passport from a member of the Cedar Mill Business Association “Welcome Squad” who will be visible in their lime-green vests. Get a stamp from each of the information booths around the perimeter, and turn in your passport before the end of the concert for a chance to win some great prizes from local businesses including gift baskets from Giftique and Bales, and lots more.
The Business Association will have several members handing out information and samples, including dog and cat treats from Sunset Animal Clinic. And Walker Garbage will have one of their “shorty” trucks for kids to see up close. CPO 1 will be there, as will the THPRD Foundation, the Cedar Mill Community Library, and the Farmers’ Market (I think they may be bringing some people treats – it’s peach season!)
The THPRD Rec Mobile will provide face painting, balloons, games, and activities for kids. Bring your family, a lawn chair or blanket, and meet your neighbors and friends for a summer evening of fun and music.
The shuttle bus will be running all evening, so come along whenever you can and leave when you want—you won’t be trapped. But if you leave early, you’ll miss the drawing and the chance to win that great stuff—you must be present to win!
