ALBION – The Who Dats performed from the amphitheater at Bullard Park on Wednesday evening as part of a July 3rd celebration.
Several hundred people enjoyed the music at the park.
Todd Graham of the Who Dats takes the lead in this in this song, while Lonnie Froman, the band’s lead singer, took a break for one number. John Borello is at left and Alex DeSmit is on the drums. Ed Hilfiker (not in photo) plays guitar for the popular band that has been entertaining for many years.
There were also several food vendors and four bounce houses.
Ryan Klatt, left, and Steve Keenan also performed from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. as the Ryan Klatt Duo. They are shown near the pavilion and little kids’ playground area.
These kids enjoy the spray park on a hot day with temperatures in the high 80s.
The Village of Albion Recreation program and Greater Albion Community Recreation and Events (G-ACRE) organized the event, which included 350 chicken barbecue dinners sold, face painting and pony rides. John Grillo, the village’s recreation director, said he would like to see the day capped with fireworks in the future.
Rock the Park (Albion Summer Music Festival) returns to the stage on Aug. 2-3.
