Week Will Feature Acapella, Barbershop, Doo-Wop and Polka Performances
North Belle Vernon’s Community Bank Park will fill with music the third week of July when two local groups host music programs.
On Thursday, July 20 at 6:30PM the Belle Vernon Public Library will host ‘3Rivers4’, an acapella harmony group which performs in the “Barbershop style.” The group presents a wide variety of songs ranging from doo-wop from the ‘50s and 60’s to inspirational and patriotic songs.
“I understand from someone who has seen them perform at another Westmoreland Library Network library that they welcome participation and singing along,” noted the library’s director Elina Filander. “We hope to make this a community, all-ages event for a summer evening.”
Also that weekend the North Belle Vernon Recreation Committee is hosting the long-running ‘Polka in the Park’ on Sunday, July 23 from 2:00PM to 6:00PM. Although they took a break during the pandemic, the Polka in the Park returned better than ever in 2022. Community Bank Park is located at 725 Graham St. in North Belle Vernon.
Both events are free and open to the public thanks in part to a grant from Westmoreland County Parks and Recreation. For more info about Thursday’s 3Rivers4 concert, call the library at 724-929-6642. For more info about the Polka in the Park, check the park website at nbvpark.com
