Great Falls — Celebrate Great Falls Foundation and AV Architects + Builders hosted the
June 18 “Concerts on the Green.” Tender Polman and Magic Bus serenaded the families on Father’s Day with songs from past decades.
“Our band will magically transport you to a place and time years ago,” lead man and Jersey native, Polman said.
The other two members, Bryan Goddard (bassist) and Mickey Eckman (drummer), are both from Annapolis, Md. They had an eccentric sound of covers like “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” by the Rolling Stones, “Mrs. Robinson” by Simon and Garfunkel, “Penny Lane” by the Beatles and other songs of the ’60s and ’70s.
The summer-long concert series started this season on May 20 and continue every Saturday, 6-8 p.m. until Aug. 20. They will include The Alan Scott Band, Local Honey, Tom Principato and many other musicians.
Many different Great Falls businesses sponsor the “Concerts on the Green” and each company has one concert date designated to them. This particular
concert was sponsored by AV Architects + Builders. They build custom homes and renovations that include a “Vacation Style Living.” The family company, owned by Francisca Alonso and Antonio Alonso, is located at 9903 Georgetown Pike, Suite 102.
The Celebrate Great Falls Foundation orchestrates other events such as an annual charity golf tournament that was held on May 22 and the Great Falls Village Center and Turner Farm Park Fourth of July Celebration. The Celebrate Great Falls Foundation recently started Movies on the Green this summer, which will be showing “Finding Dory” on Sept. 9 as their next movie.
