A Recipe for Summertime Fun
17 Apr 2017
Only one thing that can improve a warm summer evening spent along the river: the opportunity to hear great live music.
For eleven years, the River’s Edge Concert Series has been bringing idyllic summer evening entertainment to Elk River residents. Sponsored by the bank of Elk River, the concerts happen every Thursday evening at 7pm at River’s Edge Commons Park from June 15 through August 24. Concerts are free and open to the public.
The concert series is a great way to bring the Elk River community together. The mix of music includes something for everyone, from blues to country to classic rock and roll.
