Grab a pen or pencil and mark your calendars now for one of Swannanoa’s most popular annual events – the Groovin’ on Grovemont outdoor concert series that takes place each summer in Grovemont Square, near the Swannanoa Library. Bring a blanket or lawn chair and enjoy a relaxing evening of free, family-friendly entertainment. Food and home-made desserts will be available for sale. As an added bonus, a giant used book sale will take place at the Swannanoa library on each concert evening. Great music, good eats, beautiful mountain views, and cheap books – what more could you ask for?!

This year’s concert series will take place at 6 p.m. on Tuesday evenings, July 2, 16 and 30. Volunteers are hard at work booking a great musical lineup for these concerts; stay tuned for details.

Groovin’ on Grovemont is sponsored by the Friends of the Swannanoa Library and the Swannanoa Community Council (SCC). SCC operates the Swannanoa Emergency Assistance Program (SEAP) that assists Swannanoa residents with emergency utility and medical needs. Proceeds from Groovin’ on Grovemont help to support the library and SEAP.

Groovin’ on Grovemont is made possible by volunteer efforts and donations from sponsors. For information on sponsorship opportunities, please call George Scott at 779-7455.
