Symphony in the Park

Here's a very early heads-up for those of you looking for high-quality, inexpensive opportunities to hear live professional musicians. The Vancouver Symphony Orchestra will again be putting on a free concert at Deer Lake Park (only a few minutes away from our neighbourhood) on Sunday, July 12th. The concert starts at 7:30 pm, but be sure to get there early - the lawn fills up quickly. We usually make a day of it - it's a great chance to pull out the picnic blanket, some old board games while for before the concert starts, and a nice pack-along supper. And don't forget the sunscreen!
