Havana Daydreamin’ planning meetings begin October 10th, 6:00-7:00 at Legends Corner,
3008 17th Ave. Rock Island.
Your HDD Chair, Dee Robbins, invites you to attend this open meeting of minds. From 5-6 we will have informal discussion and eat/ drink if desired. The formal meeting will be one hour from 6-7, later if desired. They are open, until 10:00. Meetings will be on Tuesdays, but if you are unable to attend and wish to help, call Dee at 309-428-3686, her cell phone number.
This is a super satisfying volunteer opportunity,
and you are invited to make this another Parrothead success. For newer members, this is a 1-3 hour commitment one time. Great way to meet other club members, or you could just come between 2:30 and 3:30 and drop off your pie donation. Come say hi and introduce yourself. Here’s what we mean by Feeding Frenzy.
We prepare and serve a cheeseburger feast for the Tower residents, play trop rock music, sing along, and visit with them. The finale is always the wonderful pies that are donated. You can make a pie, purchase from Village Inn or your favorite local bakery. You may also donate funds at the October social, Oct. 24th, the Wednesday before the Feeding Frenzy so that we can purchase pies.
THE GRAND PARADE is the only bi-state St. Patrick’s Day Parade in the USA and is viewed by tens of thousands of people along the route from Rock Island, Illinois across the Mississippi River through Davenport, Iowa.
“Margaritaville” is coming back to Wisconsin.
Jimmy Buffett is bringing his Coral Reefer Band back to Alpine Valley Music Theatre July 20 for the first time since 2016.
A perennial at Alpine for years, Buffett bypassed the East Troy amphitheater the past two summers to instead play Wrigley Field in Chicago.
His absence in 2017 contributed to Alpine’s first full-season closure in its 40-year history, after operator Live Nation was unable to secure any acts that summer.
Alpine reopened in 2018, hosting five shows with Dead & Company, the Zac Brown Band and Brad Paisley. The outdoor amphitheater also will host Hootie & the Blowfish Aug. 23 as part of the band’s comeback tour after a 10-year hiatus.
