TILTONSVILLE — The Tiltonsville Gazebo Summer Concert Season will return this summer with the musical sounds of the Ohio Valley’s talent.

Every Thursday in June, July and August in the Warren Township Park at 7 p.m., the park will come alive with music. For eight years the Warren Township Lions Club has hosted the summer concerts. The concerts are free to all and this year will be sponsored in part by Unified Bank. However, a love offering will still be collected to support the bands and artists who perform.

“It has been a pleasure to provide this entertainment and visit with people from all over the valley who come to our beautiful park to enjoy this wonderful music,” Warren Township Lions President Roger Warren said.

The concession stand opens at 6 p.m. before each concert and a variety of food is provided by local clubs and organizations, including the Warren Township Lions, Country Kids 4-H, Girl Scouts, Buckeye Local High School Band, girls’ softball and more. All proceeds from the concessions support the nonprofit participating groups.

This year’s concert season kicks off June 3 with the Ron Retzer Trio. In honor of American veterans, the trio will perform a medley of patriotic music as well as their normal repertoire. Veterans will be treated to a free meal sponsored by Unified Bank.
