One of the oldest outdoor music celebrations in the country, Orton Park Festival has long been a point of pride for the neighborhood. OPF brings people together over fabulous food, fun and music. Year after year, we’re treated to some of the very best local bands and national touring acts. You know you’ll discover a new favorite as you dance among friends and neighbors beneath the old oaks. Ninety-­‐eight degrees and rain last August, and still people came out in droves. It was a great weekend… but not a stellar fundraiser. And as we make plans for OPF50, we’re looking for opportunities to make up the shortfall so we can deliver a festival worthy of this significant anniversary. “Amongst the towering oaks and the city’s finest folks,
Orton Park is one of The Mustache’s favorite festivals.
As performers or spectators, we’ll be there getting funky
each and every time.” THE MUSTACHE
We are reaching out to friends of Orton – the music lovers, dancing fools, jazz breakfasters, aerial acrobat addicts… the folks who rarely miss an eastside festival – and asking you to help make Orton’s 50th anniversary the best ever. Donate as you see fit, but a 50th anniversary festival t-­‐shirt will be yours for a lovely $50 contribution (indicate size and unisex or women’s fit preference on the check memo line.) Let’s do it up big for the 50th. Shall we? Photo courtesy of Leslie Amsterdam Donate online at: marquette-neighborhood.org
