Thursday, June 27 at 7 p.m. – FAIR HAVEN – Extra Stout, Vermont’s premier Irish Band, will be making their premiere performance at the Fair Haven Concerts in the Park on Thursday, June 27 starting at 7 p.m.. For a quarter of a century, Extra Stout has been performing traditional Irish music in and around Rutland County. Extra Stout features the musical talents of Mary Barron, Sandy Duling, Marcos Levy, and Helen Mango.
The band will play a variety of Irish music including jigs, reels, ballads, polkas, and pub songs. In addition to great vocals, the band plays a variety of instruments including guitars, fiddle, whistles, and drums. You will not want to miss them, and we hope that like all of our concerts, our crowds will come out to welcome them.
The concert committee would like to thank our many sponsors again this year who have so generously provided us the opportunity to host these concerts. You will find our sponsors listed on the schedule cards.
Hot dogs, sodas, water, and popcorn are available for purchase each week. We also have two more free ice cream nights scheduled this summer. The 50/50 raffle is very popular here in Fair Haven. Monies raised in the 50/50 help us with the cost of the concerts, but they also help support a local student scholarship for students pursuing a college career in music, and also the Dodge House in Rutland. Dodge House serves the needs of homeless veterans. Intermission also includes a free drawing for items donated by local sponsors. See you in the Park!
