Summer Concerts

Many parks in various metro areas offer free musical concerts one or two days a week through out the summer. Some even offer free movies once the sun goes down. I know of several in Oregon, but please check your own state and metro area for programs near you.

  1. I had no idea they had movies outside like this. You just show up with a blanket and snacks and find a place to sit? That's so cool! How is it I'm just hearing about this? I've lived here almost 20 years!
