The first days of Summer herald the beginning of Westwood Recreation’s Summer Concert Series. Attracting music lovers from all over the Pascack Valley. Staged in Westwood’s historic bandstand in Veterans’ Memorial Park regularly “sells out” — turning the lawny into a jam-packed outdoor festival of singing, dancing and Summer reunions!

Summer Movies in the Park
