Dickinson Memorial Park

Playing the greatest songs from 1960s to today! With a free drawing for a subscription to The Newtown Bee, the Wafel Wagen serving Belgian waffles, and collecting nonperishables for FAITH&nbsp;Food Pantry.&nbsp;
PANACEA, popular 1970s band reunited in 2013 for the "Great Newtown Reunion, a&nbsp;day of Healing"&nbsp;following the Sandy Hook School tragedy, and band members have hosted this informal reunion in Newtown's Dickinson Park almost every year since.&nbsp;&nbsp;
 This year’s lineup includes original Panacea members Corky Ballard bass, vocals; Leslie Ballard flute, vocals; with guests longtime Panacea keyboardist Christian Martirano; Tony Traina, drums; Jim Lynch, guitar; Steve Moran, sax; and Austen Lesu trumpet. Sound by Thunder &amp; Lighting Productions. (Other original members: Rick Kuhn, Jon Dodson, Mat Harris, and Bruce Tibbitts.)&nbsp;
 Clearheart Construction Co. generously supported the reunion this year, and in several past years, helping to keep our community connected.
In 1970, Panacea won the All-State Battle of the Bands, featuring a program of original music written by Corky Ballard and drummer Rick Kuhn. The group became a popular staple for proms, dances, reunions, and weddings.
 Nonperishable items will be collected for Panacea’s Annual Bridget Seaman FAITH Food Pantry Drive. Bridget ran the collection table, and it was named in her honor on her passing.
Guests are welcome to bring nonalcoholic beverages, but grilling is not allowed. Guests are reminded that glass containers and pets are not permitted in the park, with the exception of identified service dogs.

Continuing a Labor Day weekend tradition, nonperishables and dry goods will be collected at the Panacea &amp;&nbsp;Friends Newtown Reunion for the Bridget Seaman FAITH&nbsp;Food Pantry Drive from 2:00- 6:00 at the Dickinson Park Pavilion during Panacea's free concert. Newtowner Bridget Seaman was asked to man the donation table at the first drive, and every year thereafter she made it a feature, donning costumes and taking photos of guests with her signature Flat Bridget paper doll. The drive was named in her honor upon her passing. Her spirit lives on through the generosity of the contributors. This year, cash may also be donated.&nbsp; A free drawing for a one-year subscription to The Newtown Bee newspaper will also be held.&nbsp;
