Final concert in Albion summer series canceled
ALBION – The final event in an 11-concert summer series won’t happen on Wednesday because the band Soul Street has Covid. The concert won’t be rescheduled.
The series began on June 5 with the band, Carlton Station. All of the concerts have been at Bullard, with food vendors and alcoholic beverages available.
John Grillo, the village’s recreation director, said the series has been a big success, and he is open to suggestions to make the series better next year. Comments can directed to the Facebook page for the Village of Albion Summer Concert Series.
Last year, some of the concerts were held on a closed-off section of Main Street due to the lift bridge being under construction. Concerts also were held by the canal park near the fire hall last year, as well as some of the events at Bullard Park.
Grillo and the village recreation committee this year decided to have all of the concerts at the Bullard, with the musicians playing from the amphitheater stage.
Funding administered by GO Art! helped pay for the concerts this summer, as well as sponsorship from Bidleman Ford.
