77°F9:40 AM Legendary favorites The Ohio Players will headline Saturday night with their spare, supple groove and bass-heavy finger-poppin’ funk. Greyboy Allstars, an acid jazz band that focuses more on jazz than groove-oriented dance music, and the minimalist grooves and reimagined electro of Lyrics Born complete Saturday’s lineup.
Families will enjoy the Catfish Louie Kids Area again with plenty of quality activities for children, including kids bands, Radio Disney personalities and games, free caricature portraits, arts and crafts, and inflatable games such as the moon bounce and super slide. The Science Center will have a booth both days; Thursday’s theme is country music, with activities that will help kids learn about the science of sound by investigating country music and sounds from around the world. On Friday, kids will investigate the science of Independence Day, with activities focused on color, flight and fireworks.
Each evening of entertainment will open at 5pm with continuous music, food and Coors Light Beer Garden leading up to the fireworks at 10:30 p.m. Children’s activities will run from 5:00 – 9:00 p.m., and there is a Bats Baseball game on Thursday, July 3, at 7:00 p.m.
