Tonight is the night when communities across the nation get out to celebrate the value of community. There are many events happening all over the city tonight that are opportunities to meet and greet your neighbors. One of the biggest celebrations is at Fernhill Park.
Festivities at Fernhill will start with a parade (which YOU can be in!), tons of free activities at the park for kids and adults, and then a concert featuring Locust Street Taxi. The fun starts at 6 pm! See you there!
Another great community event for families this week is the MotherSource celebration on Friday, August 7.

Milagros is proud to continue its financial support of Summer Concerts in the Park. Here is what is happening at Fernhill Park in Portland via the Concordia Neighborhood Association:
Friday Nights in July (10th, 17th, 24th , & 31st ) and Tuesday August 4th for Neighbors Night Out 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM
Please come and join your neighbors in Fernhill Park for free, family-friendly, high-quality entertainment for the 2009 Summer Concerts in Portland Parks. Fernhill Park is one of the many parks throughout the City to hold free summer concerts this year and, despite hard economic times, local sponsors and neighbors contributed generously allowing us to put together another fabulous 5-concert series featuring local performers, up close and personal. We are also lucky enough to have 5 food vendors at Fernhill Park this year-Aladdin’s Caf?©, Hot Dog Ernie’s, Moutain Ice, NEPO 42, and Woodlawn Caf?© and Pastry. The concert series will kick-off on Friday July 10th and end on Tuesday August 7th with the annual Neighbors Night Out (NNO) Celebration, a unique community event that focuses on community building to prevent crime and fear of crime. The NNO Celebration will begin at 6 pm with a pedestrian and bicycle parade at Faubion Elementary School and wind its way to Fernhill Park, where the festivities will continue with a concert and other fun and educational activities. Additionally, we will be selling Fernhill Park T-shirts at the concerts to raise money for future music, so make sure to bring your favorite T-shirt to be printed upon or purchase a brand new T-shirt at the concert.
Don’t miss the summer fun in Concordia! Mark your calendars and bring your family and friends and a picnic dinner to beautiful Fernhill Park for free, high-quality entertainment!
