We're here at Scioto Park, enjoying the sousaphone-driven Cajun sounds of The New Basics Brass Band. Awesome! The weather is gorgeous, and the ice cream is fabulous! Hope you can join us. We'll be here each week now through July 26th. It's free and fun!

Next up, the Z-Sharp Big Band! We've been getting calls all week at DAC, asking for directions and information. I think we could have a great crowd on Sunday. Be sure to spread the word that ThisWeek will be on-site with a laptop and live Internet connection ... you can stop at the sponsor booth to post a note or an image on YourDublin and can invite your friends and neighbors to register on the spot.

Hope to see you there!

It was nice to see so much of the community come out this evening (june 14) to see the concert. Lots of families just sitting back and enjoying a free concert. Kudos to DAC for putting this together!

Glad you could join us Eric. It's always a LOT of fun. This week (June 21) is The Conspiracy Band, a great party band with a bit of an Earth Wind and Fire meets Average White Band vibe going on. Great horns ... and Rodney (lead vocalist) is so charismatic! He'll have the crowd on its collective feet, dancing and clapping in time to the music. Hope you can come out. This group has an enthusiastic following, so please let your friends know to arrive a little early to assure a good spot!

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
