Music echoed from Laurel Park where residents gathered for the semi-annual Tunes in the Park on Saturday, April 11. The picnic-style event was open for all residents and friends to spend the evening enjoying the park. Guests brought dishes and desserts to share with neighbors while enjoying live music. The Al Fuller band performed several sets beneath the gazebo until late into the night for residents.
Event chair Jolie McInnis was pleased with the turnout and contributions residents made.Â
"It's just an amazing community-building event. It's fun to meet your neighbors and make new ones," McInnis said.
