Tonight’s the night! We’ll see you on the lawn at First Ward Park for the first Sounds of Summer concert of the season. The concert series kicks off with the Yonder Mountain String Band. Hank, Pattie & the Current open for them. The 2019 Summer Concert Series is presented by Mecklenburg County Park and Recreation, and supported by Partners for Parks. This is the second year Partners for Parks and Park and Recreation have teamed up for the series. The series continues June 14, August 9, and September 13.
