What a beautiful evening of music and community!

We were so excited to attend the very first concert at Shotwell Gardens Park, and what a fantastic way to kick things off! A huge thank you to Nate Eppink, the Parks Department, and the Shotwell family for helping make this wonderful new community space a reality.

Ohio Crossroads put on an incredible performance, filling the park with outstanding bluegrass music and bringing everyone together for a relaxing summer evening.
