Songs of Summer Festival

The Songs of Summer Festival is coming up on August 16th at Memorial Park in Litchfield with gates opening at 4 p.m. Michael Shynes will begin performing at 5 p.m., followed by the Fabulous Armadillos at 7 p.m.

Amanda Nelson says there will be a fenced-in area for the event which will include the Splash Pad and the playground and Litchfield Rotary Club members will be at the gates accepting freewill donations. She says three youth-oriented groups will be benefitting from this year’s event.

Nelson says there will be several vendors including Gypsy Bowls, Herradura’s, Wrestling Club, Boy Scouts, Knights of Columbus, Rescue Squad, LAMP and the American Legion. She says t-shirts and can koozies will be available to purchase at the event that evening, and in case of rain, it would be held at the Litchfield Civic Arena.

Sarah Jones says there are still some raffle tickets available from board members and at Mid-Country Bank and Center Bank. She says the Songs of Summer Festival is a family-friendly event and freewill offerings will be accepted.
