Dateline: Sept. 13, 2024

This band, led by Steve Kantargis, performed a lot of great songs from the Town Hall Gazebo on Sept. 8th. When asked about the type of music they play, Steve wrote, "Since 2016 the R&B Dignity Band has been playing music that deserves to be heard live and brings out the common goodness of all souls young or old."

The weather was sunny, in the high 60s, with a breeze, so that may have played a factor in the number of attendees. EDC members provided the refreshments this time because both food providers were booked that weekend. so several pizzas were ordered from Olympus Pizza, and members brought soda, bottled water, plates, and napkins. Attendees bought most of the pizza right after it was delivered.
