Scottville Optimist Club Hosts Kids’ Carnival and Patriotic Concert to Support Hospice of Michigan

Scottville, Michigan, June 18, 2014 – The Scottville Optimist Club will sponsor a kids’ carnival and patriotic performance from the Scottville Clown Band on Tuesday, July 1.

The carnival, which will be held from 4-6 p.m. at the Scottville Optimist Clown Band Shell, is open to the public and will include games, food and fun. Tickets are $.50 each or 12 for $5.00.

The Scottville Clown Band will perform its annual patriotic concert starting at 7 p.m. While there is no admission charge for the concert, goodwill donations will be accepted to benefit Hospice of Michigan.

The Scottville Optimist Band Shell is located in downtown Scottville and hosts a performance on Tuesday nights from now through early September, including the hometown favorites, the Scottville Clown Band. The band got its start in 1903 and performs dozens of concerts across the state each year, many in support of scholarships for the performing arts and music education.
