Enjoy music by Feast of Friends & Reverend Jefferson
Gates open at 12pm for this family-friendly event
Music starts at 1pm with Reverend Jefferson.
Formed in 2013, Feast of Friends stands out as one of the only continuously active Doors tribute bands in the Northeast. Unlike typical parody acts, this tribute avoids costumes and impersonations, instead honoring the music itself with precision and passion. Blending the studio sound with the band's epic live improvisation, they capture the Doors' essence in a "spooky, accurate" way that's been called "unbelievable!" and "powerful and electrifying."
Reverend Jefferson was formed as a tribute in sound and spirit to the music of the legendary Jefferson Airplane. This mission soon became a point of departure upon a musical journey of exploration into terrains both familiar and wholly unknown. Jefferson Airplane's music originated from San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury hippie community of the late 1960's, but soon evolved into a sound which at once reflected that era's psychedelic ethos while virtually capturing the rapidly expanding revolutionary fervor of the times. With full soaring 3-part vocal harmonies and improvisational jams that range from thunderously powerful to psychedelically exploratory, Reverend Jefferson delivers the music of Jefferson Airplane like no other. Fly Reverend Jefferson- they'll get you there on time.

Vintage Baseball Game
Vintage Baseball Game
Come one, come all and take a step back in time in Lackawaxen, PA with the Mountain Athletic Club and the Elizabeth Resolutes as they go head-to-head in a vintage baseball game set for 12:00PM Saturday August 24, 2024, at Veterans’ Memorial Park. The National Park Service and the Zane Grey’s West Society cordially invite the public to help cheer on these baseball clubs who play by the 1867 & 1895 baseball regulations while dressed in vintage uniforms.
Why a vintage baseball game in Lackawaxen? Before author Zane Grey began his famed writing career, he attended the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia on a baseball scholarship while studying dentistry. Grey’s passion and talent for baseball would lead him to play for the Orange Athletic Club in New Jersey after graduating college. Even though Grey’s minor league baseball career was short lived, it would lead him to write on the topic including The Red Headed Outfielder, The Short Stop, and The Young Pitcher.
This free event will surely be fun for the whole family. Children are encouraged to show up in their local baseball and softball uniforms to show their team spirit and for a fantastic photo opportunity with the vintage baseball teams and the life sized cut out of Zane Grey in his baseball uniform.
