Abbey Roadster performs at Saturdays in the Park in 2015. They’ll be back in La Center for another free concert on July 29.
La Center's annual, free for all-ages summer concert series kicks off this Saturday.
This will be the fourth season of Saturdays in the Park with five free concerts, 6-8 p.m., held at the amphitheater at Sternwheeler Park at 100 E 4th St., La Center.
Sternwheeler Park is a natural amphitheater with tiered seating, so bring your lawn chair or a blanket and a picnic lunch.
Saturdays in the Park was started by local promoter and long time La Center resident Mona Bean in 2014. After attending many "concert in the park" series in other towns such as Woodland, Camas and Vancouver, Bean approached the city of La Center with the idea of starting their own. After a successful first season they've kept it going. Every year the crowds have grown.
The concerts include classic rock and country tribute bands, and well-known original acts coming through the area on tour.
