All are welcome to the Ribbon Cutting for the new Par28 Pavilion at the Field of Dreams on Saturday, May 18th at 2pm. The organizers are planning an exciting event, with a performance by the Salem Boyz as the first-ever performance in this new space!  Par28 will be the food vendor this this event.

This marks the completion of the new Pavilion project, following a groundbreaking in March, 2023.  More than eight years in the making, this project marked the teamwork of local businesses, design professionals, skilled tradesmen, and generous community members who all worked together to provide the town with a structure that signifies community spirit.  The previous structure was 23 yeas old and had become unsafe.  It also failed to provide cover from rain.   In the past, as many as 30-50% of the planned events had to be cancelled due to inclement weather.  The new design includes a roof element to protect equipment and performers in the case of threatening weather conditions and is also fully handicap accessible.
