Thursday, June 7
Historic and shady Gibson Park is kicking off the summer season with the first Picnic in The Park event of the year on June 7.
The picnic is kid-friendly and free to attend. Beginning at 11:30 a.m., it will include food provided by the Rusty Wheel restaurant and live entertainment by the local Hultman & Barb Duo. Both members sing and play the guitar and banjo. These skills allow them to play a broad range of American classics from Johnny Cash, Carole King, Jimmy Buffett and more.
Picnics in The Park will continue every other Thursday throughout the summer, each with unique food and entertainment, sponsored by Widget Financial and brought to North East by the North East Area Chamber of Commerce and the North East Arts Council.
Gibson Park is located just off Main Street in North East and public parking is available. In the event of rain, the picnic will be held at the First Baptist Church on South Lake Street. — Hannah McDonald
