First of Fruita's Thursday night free concert series

Stray Grass opened the Thursday night free concert series sponsored by the Fruita Parks and Recreation Department on a lovely, warm summer evening.

Stray Grass drew a big crowd Thursday, June 3, on the Fruita Civic Center's front lawn. Armed with lawn chairs, beverages, the crowd settled down to enjoy the variety of music played by the group. Some even ate their evening meal.

A family affair, all ages tapped, swayed and even danced to the rhythms.

A special couple danced near the Civic Center building as they remembered their wedding dance 49 years ago on June 3, 1961.

Charlene and Greg Longhorn poised for a wedding rememberance photo and went on enjoying the memories and the evening. The couple has lived in the area since 1975. A special wedding anniversary to this happy duo!
