Conservation District Announces First Fridays’ Lineup

The McHenry County Conservation District will open its summer concert series on June 7.

From MCCD:Sit back and enjoy a summer evening of musical entertainment with The StingRays on June 7 from 7–8:30 p.m. on the back patio of the Lost Valley Visitor Center in Glacial Park, Rt. 31 and Harts Rd. in Ringwood.

The StingRays play the greatest music ever written with the energy, passion and authenticity of the artists whose music they love. The music, their rapport with the audience, and the famous StingRay moves have made them repeated favorites at events throughout the Midwest. The group loves to interact with the audience through trivia, dance contests, and strolling through the audience. They are sure to have you up dancing and singing along!
Bring a picnic dinner or dessert and a lawn chair and enjoy our intimate outdoor setting under the branches of ancient oaks with stunning views of the outstretched valley. (In the case of inclement weather, concerts will be moved indoors. No glass containers. Site closes at 9 p.m.) Join us for additional First Friday Concerts on July 5–Jaik Willis, August 2–Georgia Rae Family Band, September 6–Fox Crossing Stringband.
