My wife and I stopped by the first Park Santiago Annual Summertime Concert, on Saturday evening, and found it was a huge success.
The baseball field was packed with booths and residents having fun. There were a lot of local companies there, as well as organizations, including Naturalist for You, the Santiago Park Neighborhood Association, the Road Less Traveled and Mother’s Market.
There were hula hoop contests, face painting, food, and all sorts of fun products at the booths.
The band “Hey, Where’s my Bike,” played a bunch of great cover songs, and a lot of folks danced the night away in front of the stage.
Park Santiago resident Casey DePersis was the driving force behind this great event. She deserves a lot of credit for pulling it off!
