Palatine Park District Friday Lunch Specials: Tropixplosion

Palatine Park District presents the second Friday Lunch Special of 2012 featuring Tropixplosion. Tropixplosion is a Caribbean show band that features steel drums, incredible percussion, great vocals, Blue Man-style performance pieces, and more high-energy fun. In essence, they present the ultimate island party. But much more than the standard steel drum band, they play an amazing variety of music as well – not only your tropical favorites, but many reggae classics and pop/rock party songs re-arranged to feel like the Islands. New hits, classic rockers, and many other surprises are all performed with an exotic twist during a Tropixplosion show.

This free concert event will be held on Friday, August 10 at noon at Towne Square, 150 West Palatine Road, Palatine. The community is invited to bring chairs, blankets and lunch to enjoy a tropical afternoon show.

The mission of Palatine Park District is to provide a variety of safe, enjoyable and affordable parks and recreation facilities and activities that will enhance the quality of life by promoting good health and well-being for all residents and visitors of the Palatine Park District.
