Wartime Radio Revue (Patriotic) – August 4, 2016
National Night Out & Arcadia’s 113th Birthday! National Night Out promotes crime prevention and awareness through police-community partnerships. Arcadia’s Police and Fire Department will be joining us for this very special occasion. Free fingerprinting for the kids, crime prevention materials and other information will be available. Stop by and show your support to Arcadia’s finest. But wait…that is not it! Help Arcadia celebrate our 113th birthday by enjoying some birthday cake (while supplies last).Wartime Radio Revue presents hits of the 30’s and 40’s, along with late- breaking news-stories from the war-years.
Wartime Radio Review delivers several original songs and even some 1940-style radio commercials. Listening to this band is like taking a time-machine back to a World War II USO show. With female vocalists, a hot, driving rhythm section, and horn section, the “classic-swing” sound is both full and authentic! When you add in “armed-forces style” khaki-colored uniforms, it’s all there! Formed in November of 1997, they quickly established themselves as one of the premier Big-Bands of Southern California. Arcadia will love this show.
Movies in the Park
The Movies in the Park are held on Friday evenings with activities starting at 6:45pm and movies starting at dusk on the lawn between City Hall and the Police Department (240 West Huntington Drive). Movies in the Park provided in partnership with CHOICESS Arcadia.
