GENEVA, IL - Flooding has led to a change of scenery for music and movies in the park festivities.

Next up at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, July 26, are The StingRays, a band boasting rock 'n roll classics from the 50s, 60s and 70s. A Caribbean, classic and raggae rock performer, Mr. Myers, will take center stage the following week at 7 p.m. on Aug. 2.

Firehouse Pizza & Grill and Kilwins will be selling pizza slices, beverages, and ice cream at both concerts.

Movie-goers should grab their blankets and lawn chairs and head to River Park on Thursday, Aug. 3, for a showing of "Sully." Concessions will be available.

Movies in the Park are sponsored by the Kane County Chronicle and Shodeen Family Foundation. Concerts are sponsored by the Shodeen Family Foundation, The Chiropractic People, Kane County Chronicle, Firehouse Pizza & Grill, The PrivateBank, and Kilwins of Geneva.
