NORWICH — Tonight, August 26, is the final installment of the NBT Bank Summer Concert Series and is sure to go out with a bang. Eclectic band The National Reserve will be performing at 7 p.m. in East Park.

"For nearly half a decade, The National Reserve has spent Friday nights lighting it up at Brooklyn bars, winning over fans with epic sets and a remarkable breadth of song-craft and showmanship," said Chenango Blues Association officials about the band.

Attendees can also enjoy some tasty treats courtesy of several food vendors setting up shop in the park. Vendors include Nina's Pizzeria, Naan Ya' Business, Hubcap Munchies, Deja Brew, Gilligan's Ice Cream, and Lickity Split Ice Cream.

Chenango Blues Association officials thanked sponsors, volunteers, and the community in a statement, saying, "Many thanks to our sponsors, CBA volunteers, sound engineers, and the community for your support.”
