Concert on the Common Hi there, Yes, bring a blanket, picnic dinner (probably bug spray!). Overall, just a nice night outside to enjoy this fabulous weather!! Here is a blurb from their website: Since 2000, Ben Rudnick and Friends have been playing family friendly music featuring instantly hum-able, original songs and fun spins on well known traditional material. Boasting a high level of adventurous musicianship their award winning recordings contain a unique acoustic sound ranging from light folk to bluegrass, calypso, and rock. Drawing on the original songs and traditional material from their recordings, Ben Rudnick and Friends seamlessly integrate classic songs such as “Route 66,” “Oh Boy!,” “Jambalaya/Hey Good Looking, “Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” and Beatles’ tunes into their sets. As Buzz McClain of the Washington Post commented "Ben Rudnick refuses to pander by making "children's music," with the result being a disc of sophisticated melodies, precise instrumentation and witty lyrics that delight the entire family." Since Ben Rudnick and Friends original songs aren't overtly children's music, and enthusiastic renditions of well known songs appeal to all, everyone in the audience from the oldest to the youngest become involved in the excitement of the moment. Joy spreads across young faces and years fade from the old faces. Performances tend to be "events" and a slice of time where families can relax and enjoy each other's company.
Concert on the Common Just wanted to remind everyone that the concert scheduled on the common last week--Ben Rudnick and Friends was rescheduled to Tuesday, August 31. We have gone every year and it is a lot of fun--great family band!!

Sandy Beach Ok, so I found the answer to my own question. There is a DCR beaches hotline at 617-626-4972 that is supposedly updated daily. They are starting the water quality testing today as the official opening is this weekend. I also found out that the spray parks will be opening this weekend as well. Does anyone know why Broggard beach has such limited hours (12-5)?
