What that means is, you will miss the "Sweethearts Valentine Dance" this Saturday (14th) but you will be here to hear "Music in the Park" on the 26th.
The same Villages Swing Band that is playing for the "Sweethearts" dance can be heard again on Feb 26th. Along with a breakout performance by the Villages Big Band group. Their first ever performance.
Starts around 1PM behind LaHacienda Rec Center. Bring a couple chairs and a cooler of your favorite beverage. Program will last a couple of hours. Fun way to spend an afternoon.
This is the first in a series of "Music in the Park" events.

Jerry,

Are you saying that TV's Mardi Gras festival has been cancelled or rescheduled?

Music in the Park sounds like a lot of fun. I'll print out your post and bring it with us on our trip and we'll see if we can fit it it. Sounds like my kind of event.

Dirigo
