The District of Lake Country has unveiled its new outdoor concert and movies in the park program, replacing the Lake Country Open Air Performance Series with Live! in Lake Country, a summer-long series of outdoor events in the district.
The series began with the Canada Day performances in Beasley Park that ended with a movie in the park and continued on Saturday with a fews concert at Okanagan Centre Park.
Much like the open air series did, Live! in Lake Country will offer free public concerts in the various parks throughout the community every Saturday night during July and August. Live music is scheduled from 6:40 to 9 p.m.m on Saturday each weekend, but people are invited to come out early, bring a picnic, lawn chairs and/or blankets for seating, and enjoy the parks prior to the concerts. There will be activities for the kids and food vendors onsite performance nights as well.

In Lake Country is hosting two live bands from 6:30-9:00pm followed by a big screen Movie-in-the-Park (The Jungle Book) on July 1 at Beasley Park,91裸聊视频� said Ryan Donn, Cultural Development Coordinator. 91裸聊视频淭hen Saturday, July 2 we91裸聊视频檙e hosting a free concert in Okanagan Centre Park.91裸聊视频�
