The previous “Final Fridays” concerts in June and July featured Marsha Goodman-Wood and Big Hillbilly Bluegrass, and they were also hits with the multi-generational crowd. And yes, the group is already planning to do this again next summer!

The playground’s next event is the annual Halloween party, to be held Sunday, October 25th from 10 a.m. to noon. Watch this space for more details, and to get updates straight from the volunteers (and learn how to join them), follow Friends of Forest Hills Playground on Facebook and Twitter and join their listserv.
