The Toga Party Band performed Aug. 10 at Catasauqua Park Amphitheater, 501 American St., as part of the park’s summer concert series.

The band has a popular local following. Residents packed the amphitheater for the performance.

Jeff Miller, who manages the park activities and the pool, was happy for some good news. Flooding at the municipal pool last week closed the pool for the season.

“I was down here, and I could see the flood water coming into the pool,” he said. “It’s good that we have some decent weather and a nice band.”

Miller coordinates the band schedule. The concert series is now so popular that local bands fill up the schedule before the end of winter.

Concerts are scheduled every Friday night, weather permitting. Seating is your blanket on well-trimmed Kentucky Bluegrass or your lawn chair.

The event is BYOB, and there is always a celebration of some sort. Catasauqua Police Officer Jason Sedgwick had his friends there that night for his 40th birthday celebration.

Next in the lineup is Big Valley Blue Grass 7 p.m. Aug. 17.
