First Concert of the Year

Dateline: Apr. 19, 2022

Jackie Lee and the Cold Steel Ramblers

Allenstown Corn Hole Tournament

You are invited to sign up now for the Allenstown Corn Hole Tournament to be held during the concert. We had one last year, a lot of people participated, so we decided to bring it back, but better organized.

The tournament will start at 3 p.m. the day of the concert. There will be prizes for the best players.

If you are eager to participate, send your name via e-mail to the EDC at economicdevelopment@allenstownnh.gov.
Be sure to let us know if you can bring game boards since we don't have any.

New Tent for Attendees

A new amenity for this year will be a large Wedding Style Tent for those seeking shelter from the sun. (We are not planning any rain!) Thus you have no excuse for not joining everyone at the concert. Music, Dancing, Food (pending), Fun, and Shade!

ARD Student Council

There will be tables staffed by the ARD Student Council as a fund raiser for school projects. They plan to offer ARD logo mechandise and delicious Homemade Baked Goods.
Be sure to visit them and get something for yourself or your children in support of these fine students.

Allenstown Fire Truck

In support of the concert, the Allenstown Fire Department will have on display one of their fire trucks for young and old to get a close look at. We are not sure which vehicle it will be, but we are sure you will be glad to see it.

Refreshments

For a surprise treat, we have arranged for the return of Mr. Vis and the vintage 1950s Ice Cream Truck. Treats include chocolate and strawberry eclairs, red/white/blue bomb pops, Good Humor king cones, Good Humor cookie sandwiches, Klondike bars, snow cones, and more!

Parking

Parking is on Library or School Street, at town hall, or at the Dupont School next door.

The concert is free and open to the public. and is hosted by the Allenstown Economic Development Committee.
