We got a lot of interest from our story last week about the start of the spring Music in the Park concert series at East Cobb Park.
Sunday was to have been the kickoff event for the four-concert series with the local duo The Woodys, but the Friends for the East Cobb Park said Thursday that’s been called off due to an illness in the group.
“Their performance will be rescheduled to a later date this spring,” the Friends group said in a social media message. “We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or dashed hopes—we were looking forward to it too!”
The other scheduled concerts are April 16, April 30 and May 21.
The Friends group also will begin a new feature next month called Movies in the Park, in which a family-friendly film is shown on a large screen near the pavilion.
Group president Kurt von Borries tells us they’re still working on finalizing a date for that event, but the film is “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” starring Tom Hanks.
That film series is sponsored by the Rotary Club of East Cobb.
