Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce issued the following announcement on June 11
Future Neenah announces the first phase of its reformatted Summer Concert Series. With the health and safety of the community in mind, both the Out to Lunch and Evening Concerts will be temporarily moved from Shattuck Park to alternative outdoor locations that provide additional space for social distancing. The Future Neenah Summer Concert Series is presented by Richard & Amy Jo Aylward.
The first four Out to Lunch Concerts (July 2, July 9, July 16, July 23 from 11:30am – 1:00pm) will take place at Riverside Park in Neenah with added safety measures including park benches placed 6 feet apart and 6 foot circles painted on the grass to indicate a safe distance for attendees to enjoy the music while spaced appropriately.
Future Neenah is working with the Neenah Joint School District to host the first two Evening Concerts (July 1 & July 8, 6-8pm) Drive-In style in the Neenah High School Parking Lot which will provide added space by separating attendees with one empty parking stall between vehicles. There will be a 150-car capacity. No alcohol is allowed on school property; additional details and information will be available very soon on the Future Neenah website and Facebook page. The opening concert on Wednesday, July 1 is generously sponsored by Bergstrom Automotive.
“While this summer will certainly look different in many ways, we remain committed to the heart of our mission which is promoting cultural and economic vitality for the Neenah area. Our 2020 events are being transformed to provide a safe and comfortable environment.” Future Neenah Executive Director Nikki Hessel stated. “We are grateful for the patience and understanding of the community as we work to be flexible and creative moving forward in order to accommodate the most up to date safety measures.”
Due to the rapidly changing nature of the circumstances, check neenah.org and the Future Neenah Facebook page often for updates. Announcements about future event locations and formats for the 2020 season will be made gradually as the staff makes decisions using the most recent recommendations.
