Chamber Postpones Today's Concert in the Park Due to Excessive Heat

Due to the Excessive Heat Warning now in effect with triple-digit temperatures through Wednesday, the Grants Pass & Josephine County Chamber of Commerce will not be hosting Concerts in the Park this evening.

For the record, Grants Pass reached 109 degrees on Monday, but it did not break a high temperature record for July 8th. The record remains 110 degrees in 1903.

While the cancellation was not a decision made lightly, the Chamber prioritizes the well-being, health and safety of Concerts in the Park attendees and the many dedicated people it takes to put on this great community event.

The Chamber will be adding another concert date set for Tuesday, July 30th. Due to scheduling conflicts, Danielle Kelly will not be able to perform. New band information is coming soon. They apologize for any inconvenience and are very thankful for everyone's patience and understanding. They encourage our community to exercise caution during these extreme temperatures.

The Chamber will see you at the Josephine County Fairgrounds Midway Park next week, July 16th, with Trevor Hanks & the Blackburn Rebels.
