I have friends that go every single week-end.  From Memorial Week-End through the Labor Day Week-end you can enjoy all kinds of outdoor musical programs.  Under the stars, this venue is so popular. All you need to bring, most of the time, is your chair, a blanket and your friends. This coming week-end, the performances come to an end.

If you are visiting our Delaware Beaches, this might be your opportunity.  From Ocean City, Maryland it is just a short drive.  Just turn west on Rt. 54 and follow it for about 4 miles.  Entrance by Harris Teeter, which is the intersection of Rt. 54 and Rt. 20.  Drive into the community of Bayside, proceed on Americana Parkway, all the way to the back.  You won’t miss it.
