Volunteers are sought during the City’s Target Symphony in the Cities and Prelude in the Park event, a time-honored ritual that caters to people of all ages.
The fun begins at 4 p.m. on Saturday, July 28 at Oso Viejo Park with a Parisian themed “Prelude to Paris.” Folks will enjoy strolling along the “Champs-Élysées”; fun family activities for all ages; a brass band; tasty home-style fare; gourmet food trucks; and a wine and beer garden. Bones West, a talented brass band, will entertain the masses beginning around 4 p.m.
At 4:30 p.m. a pre-concert “musical playground” for kids begins that includes a “conducting” clinic with Maestro St. Clair. Children ages 3-12 will have the opportunity to meet a musician, play a variety of musical instruments and make their own drum. A new exciting event on tap this year is the Waiters’ Race beginning at 4:30 p.m. Local restaurant waiters will compete by balancing a fully loaded tray, including a wine bottle and two empty glasses while speed walking through a jam-packed crowd on the Village Green without dropping a thing. Applications are still being accepted for participation in the Waiters’ Race.
Volunteers are sought to help children with musical playground activities and interactive crafts and games during the Prelude to Paris festivities. Volunteer shifts are from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. (Volunteers must be at least 15 years old.)
