Dozens of local bands and artists take the stage during Volume One’s Sounds Like Summer Concert Series in Phoenix Park, showcasing the musical talent in the area. What’s truly better than a day at the park, relaxing with the whole family outdoors? Irvine Park in Chippewa Falls remains one of area families’ favorite fun spots, and Tuesday Night Blues at Owen Park lifted the spirits of Chippewa Valley music lovers over the summer. — Parker Reed
