We rocked you, got you dancing the night away and brought in
gourmet food trucks to satisfy your yen for everything from sausage to sushi.
The city of Santee’s summer concert series – nine concerts
over 64 days – featured everything from rock to reggae and country to calypso. Last
Thursday’s concert by the Cat-illacs was the series finale.Attendance was higher than ever, as the Town Center Community Park venue continues to grow in popularity.
The concert series not only provided a cool place to hang out during the hot summer days, it was a gathering place for the community to come together. Longtime residents renewed friendships and those new to our city made new friends in the family friendly atmosphere.
Many thanks to sponsors Barona Resort & Casino, Cox Communications, and Union Bank who made the concert series possible.
Didn’t get enough music in the park? Next up, the pickers and fiddlers are coming to town. That would be the Santee Bluegrass Festival scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 22 from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at Town Center Community Park East, 550 Park Center Drive.
The festival features samples of fine wines, micro-brew beers, a variety of food and a chance to bid on donated silent auction items such as a Taylor electric guitar, airline tickets and baskets more.
