Springettsbury Park's Sounds of Summer

Looking for Springettsbury Park's Sounds of Summer 2012?  

Every summer Springettsbury Park (by the York Galleria Mall) in Springettsbury Township (East York area) hosts Sounds of Summer (PDF file).  Every Sunday and Wednesday from June 12, 2011 until Sunday August 8, 2011 you can bring your blankets or lawn chairs at 7pm to enjoy an evening of live music, food and fun.  Sounds of Summer is held rain or shine.

On Sunday July 3, 2011 there will also be fireworks.

There are many different genres performing and many returning favorites.  This event is always full of energy and if the family just isn't into it there is always the wonderful "Castle Park" to enjoy.  Favorite food vendors including Bricker's French Fries and funnel cake are available during these events

Currently there is a mix-up on their calendar, as it states that on Sunday August 6th there will be many art activities for children from 1-5 and that the last day is Sunday August 8 (Beetlemania!).  Saturday is the 6th, Sunday the 7th.  I'm assuming that the Rock the Canvas event (art activities and live music) is on Saturday the 6th and Beetlemania is Sunday the 7th.

Are you participating in any celebrations this weekend?  Do you have a favorite that you wouldn't miss or are you trying something new this year?  We usually go to Shelly Park in West York and sometimes head over to the fairgrounds to hear the York Symphony Orchestra play.  But we've also enjoyed Springettsbury's Sounds of Summer.  This year we could go to both, since Springettsbury's is on Sunday!
